About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Numerous scrapes and scratches on the hood and there is some discoloring on the driver's door. The trim shows scratches around the front window. The interior is clean but heavily worn despite the 8,616 claimed original miles on the odometer. There is a 3-inch rip in the driver's seat and the headliner is starting to sag. Engine bay is clean and tidy, and the underbody has mild dirt and wear. With the consignor since 1989. A low-mileage, all-original car, but not a very good one and the imperfections in the stainless steel bodywork will take special attention to address.

Market commentary

A below average DeLorean bought for average DeLorean money. The buyer paid more attention to the small amount of digits on the odometer than to anything else.
