OT - What is wrong with the DeLorean DMC-12

[slinky]

Yesterday morning parked up by the roundabout with a recovery vehicle was the Back to the future DeLorean DMC-12, with a mechanic looking in the back.

apologies for the shakey hand, i was driving whilst taking the photo...

So the question being what do you think is wrong?

My thought is it has to be something to do with the flux capacitor....

Maybe he was putting in the plutonium he stole from the Libiyans

That is probably a kit car with a VW beetle engine in the back (used in a lot of kit cars for the throaty sound).

So, it's not "back to the future" .... it's Knightrider ??

* deliberate misread of "kit" as "kitt" for comic effect.

What they need is a 1.21 Gigawatts battery

Wasn't the delorean bodywork solid steel and thus made the car extremely heavy and slow?

The problem.

You built a time machine...out of a delorean?!

I don't think people ever got it far enough to notice.

They are probably police. They are searching it for the Drug Money that was used to finance it's production along with £100 million of British Taxpayers hard earned cash.

That would be the appalling quality of the build (it is TRULY dreadful!) and the fact that de Lorian ran off with all the cash that the britsh government threw at the project (jobs in belfast) in 1975 ish

My guess is that he's turning it off and then back on again.
