Help trying to locate this car. - DMCLee - 17 Oct 2022
Hi all.
I'm trying to find a Delorean that was in the UK back in 1996. A car dealership in Cornwall allowed the owner to store it on the roof top. It had still had US Florida plates on so possibly imported that year? Don't remember seeing any damage and it looked clean inside.
Can anyone help?
Licence plate: HKT 660

Interesting, I didn't know there were many about at that time! Obviously one of the earliest re-imports at that time. Chris Williams or Chris Parnham are perhaps best placed to answer!

One for Dave Howarth I think. There were probably only about 100 DeLoreans in the UK at the time.
I think Keith Pratt was from that part of the country who Dave knows well and has owned a few of these cars.
Where in Cornwall was this dealership may I ask?

Hi Stuart
The dealership was located in St Ives on the B3306 / Higher Stennack.

I don't have any info on it......be warned....searching for a particular car or plate.......can take many years!
Then it can also be like "meeting your hero".....which most folk say you shouldn't do.

There's no harm in trying. Would love to see what happened to it.
