As the Doc would put it “Great scott Marty, we cant get back to the future as our time machine is in an auction house”, well that maybe a little imaginative but half of the story is true.
It seems as though one of the last three remaining Deloreons from the third installment of the trilogy is to go under the hammer in the next few weeks as part of the Profiles in History auction.
The time machine, sorry, Deloreon, will come with some extras such as the vest worn by Michael J. Fox’s character and a remote-control hoverboard.
This particular model was the car used in the Wild West scenes and was modified to cope with the rough terrain.
Prices are expected to start from $400,000 but thats a bargain considering it has its own built in fuel-conversion system enabling it to cross time dimensions on nothing but banana skins and cans of beer (maybe this is the solution to the Oil price volatility we are currently experiencing).
Nonetheless, fans of the franchise will be sad to see one of the most iconic cars in Hollywood go under the hammer, especially when we all know deep down, if we had a Deloreon time machine, we wouldnt of used it to do the moonwalk in an 19th century saloon!

The Association of British Insurers (ABI) have recently circulated a press release that highlights tackling the ‘compensation culture’ in Ireland led to a drop of 16 per cent in the cost of Irish motor insurance premiums.
Director General of the ABI, Otto Thoresen, believes that there is an ‘urgent need’ to reform the compensation system that exists in the UK, which could lead to a significant drop in insurance costs. He said, “Rising claims costs from personal injury claims, excessive legal costs, insurance fraud and uninsured driving, coupled with lower investment returns in recent year, have unfortunately led to rising motor insurance bills for many customers. In fact, the motor insurance sector has not been profitable for the last sixteen years because the amount paid in claims and expenses has been greater than that received in premiums.”
The government in the UK is trying to cut the costs involved in running a vehicle by fighting insurance fraud by introducing a national insurance Fraud Register to track down known insurance cheats and has offered funding to run a unit based within the City of London police to investigate bogus insurance claims.
They also hope to help young drivers by introducing certain car insurance quotes that are specifically designed to ensure insurance is cheaper for younger or novice motorists.
There has been a call for government reforms to tackle the costs and compensation culture, as when these kinds of reforms were introduced in Ireland, motor premiums dropped by 16 per cent.
