Unusual to see one on the road. There's one in the Ulster Transport Museum at Cultra outside Belfast.

Nice view and pic of this DeLorean. Yes Francesco: Despite being produced in Northern Ireland, DMC-12s were primarily intended for the American market. Therefore, all production models were left-hand drive (designed to be driven on the right side of the road). However, evidence survives from as early as April 1981 which indicates that the DeLorean Motor Company was aware of the need to produce a right-hand drive version to supply to world markets such as Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Britain and Japan, where traffic travels on the left. The first two markets outside of the US were to be the United Kingdom and Germany.
