In January 1981, just three months before Bobby Sands started his hunger strike in the Maze Prison, the first DeLorean DMC-12 rolled off the production line in West Belfast.
The brainchild of the swashbuckling John Z DeLorean, this stainless steel luxury sports car with gull-wing doors is stencilled into film history as ‘Doc’ Brown’s time-travelling machine in the sci-fi adventure Back to the Future.
