DON'T RUN FROM A DMC

摘要

Everybody knows the DeLorean DMC-12 as the car from Back to the Future, but this UK-built sports coupe appeals for reasons other than its film fame, says John Evans. Stainless-steel body panels, tough mechanicals, many rust-free low-mileage examples and fast-improving parts supply: a DeLorean DMC-12 makes a promising classic car purchase. And if you're tempted, don't hesitate: against the backdrop of rising values for desirable old motors, this year's 40th anniversary DeLorean celebrations (the first cars rolled off the Belfast production line in early 1981) are sure to burnish the DMC-12's reputation with a consequent impact on prices.
