Second-hand markets and shops sometimes hide little gems, like a book signed by the author or a vastly underrated piece of jewellery. If you happen to be in Estonia, specifically in Kuressaare, Saaremaa, hunt down a thrift shop called Insect, because it has a genuine DMC DeLorean for sale.
The car, spotted by Geenius, is roped off like a museum piece and it looks like a pretty well-kept one too. If it still runs, it might be worth close to its asking price, which is a most un-thrifty 55,000 euro (NZ$93,540.70). Almost $66 thousand US.
While they’re a massive pop culture icon, it’s hard to justify paying nearly six figures for a DeLorean, especially considering they didn’t time travel from the factory. Even hitting the magic 88mph speed would be a bit of a feat, considering the top speed of a brand new DeLorean was 109mph when its 2.85-litre V6 was making the full 130 horsepower (97kW).
Of course, as everyone knows, the DeLorean in Back to the Future used a special twin-turbo V6 tuned by Legend Industries that propelled the car to 60mph (97kmh) in 5.8 seconds and on to a top speed of 150mph.
