Does anyone know where I can source the promo shot of John Delorean posing with the car?

It has flats at the Seymour Hill Estate in the background, which overlooked the factory.

Ideally I would like to source it from the UK or Europe.

The one in the attached picture hangs on the walls of DMC Houston I think......I had to screen shot a Youtube Video to get the picture.

The image is also used in the German book "Zu früh für die Zukunft" and stated there to be from Pacemaker Press Intl., Belfast.
You can also see it here in a German webpage (http://www.chilterngreen.de/html/das_delorean-drama.html).

The image shows a late prototype of the DMC-12 with sliding windows.

Thanks for your response folks.

I think I will get in touch with pacemaker and see how I might go about getting a copy of the picture!

I used to go into the highrise flats to look at the test track from one of the communial landings/stairways when I was a kid...

Interesting to hear it was a prototype PK from the image I have, I would never have known that.

A quick look at Pacemaker press' website and the photos not there....an email will still be pinged. However this is what they currently offer....

Another Northern Irish press photo website (Presseye) provided these pictures....

Oh, they have an online archive. And here the blank in "De Lorean" is a drawback. So always be sure, if you search for DeLorean, also search for Lorean.

When you get a copy of the original, have a closer look at the door windows. You will notice that these are the windows which have to be moved manually forward and backward. Some early brochures from DMCL, Belfast, show these windows too.
