I'm not aware of any Bricklins in the UK - there very nearly was a couple of weeks ago.
I got eBay fever and started to chase a nice Bricklin from California...but then I got distracted by a Dodge Charger and started bidding for that instead.
I quite like the Bricklins - the safety bumper looks a bit odd - and the doors leak - but I like them.
I was trying to outdo Mr Nicholson with his Sinclair C5 contraption!

I'm sure i read in a magazine a month or two ago that there are 2 in the UK. One of which is in the Bath motor museum. I'll see if I can find the article.

Ok, Classic & Sports Car September 2007 issue has a 4 page article on what is "believed to be one of only two examples in the UK."
It's at the Haynes International Motor Museum in Somerset, which is the first place I ever came face to face with a DeLorean.

Hiya Chris
We were at a car show at Thorseby Park in Nottinghamshire the other week, and got chatting to a guy who had sold his DeLorean and also a Bricklin - he said the Bricklin was one of only 2 in the UK. He couldnt remember the reg or vin of his DeLorean, but said he sold it to 2 guys from Ireland.
