VIDEO: DELOREAN - EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW!

By now everyone knows the DeLorean Motor Company; it is those crazy guys who decided to build a futuristic sportscar with the engine at the rear, unpainted stainless steel body panels and of course gullwing doors. (Basically, the car that features in Back to the Future)

Designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro and engineered by Colin Chapman, the DeLorean DMC-12 failed to meet the expectations created by its royal credentials as the Peugeot-Renault-Volvo V6 engine was producing just 130 horsepower and therefore offered inferior performance to rivals of the era.

John DeLorean was definitely a risk taker and a golden boy of the US automotive industry at his prime but a series of mistakes along with accusations of drug trafficking put the final nail in the coffin of DMC before he got to see his company thrive.
