DeLorean goes back to the future

---

Demand for DeLorean cars is so high that it may go back into production, according to a US firm.
The last of the vehicles - made famous in the film Back To The Future - rolled off the production line near Belfast 25 years ago.

However, the number of enthusiasts seeking the car has meant a limited number may be built in the US.

"You can't have any conversation about the car without talking about the impact of the whole series of Back To The Future movies."
Mr Espey added: "There are guys who were in their teens when they first saw the movie, who are now in their late 30s or early 40s, who are at that point in life when they can get the car they wanted when they were a kid.

"We feel quite confident that there is a market for between 20-25 hand-built made to order cars each year, without question. Right now, we have a nine-month waiting list for cars."

About 8,600 cars rolled off the production line in Dunmurry, but only 6,500 remain in existence.

John DeLorean died in March 2005 aged 80.
