Our eBay find of the day attempts to take us…”Back to the Future”. The funny looking DeLorean-wannabe is based on a 1988 Volkswagen Scirocco and like the original DMC, it has been equipped with gullwing-style doors. According to the seller, the replica was created in 2006 in order to take part in some sort of rally in the UK. -More pics after the jump
Trashy? Yes, but incredibly ingenious. Honestly, that's not a bad effort at a Delorean - they achieved the trademark doors, whether in an idealy fashion or in this case not. Nice find!
the DeLorean and Scirocco are designed by the same person, Giorgetto Giugiaro. He has designed many others, BMW M1, Lotus Espirt, VW Rabbit, Hyundai Excel...all from the 80's. Note that they all have a similar design with the DMC-12 being his most famous.
