DMC Prototype - GarrattNash - 23 Feb 2010

Hello All
Paul here from Coalville, need help if someone out there can? :wink: The delorean prototype had a citroen 4 cylinder engine, can any one tell me what other car used this engine if any??? Thanks

CX *I think* - certainly a hydro-pneumatic one because you can see the main sphere still on the engine in the press photos.


Re: DMC Prototype - GarrattNash - 23 Feb 2010

Sorry Martin but would that be the Citroen CX, any idear of the year?


Re: DMC Prototype - stunned_monkey - 23 Feb 2010

Sorry yes I thought it was generally known that it was a Citroen engine. As for year... no idea but what year was the prototype made, and when did the CX come out?
