Spotted on Facebook, someone seems to be offloading their BTTF collection including a Time Machine... Looks like Ollies old car.

New owner didn't keep it long.
A bit depressing that it is clearly being sold as a prop and not a car. MOT expired in May, no details on mileage, mechanical condition etc.

Interesting, you would have thought for that money they would have kept it road legal at least.

...and the massive increased markup since he bought it!

Only just seen this. Shame they’re selling it so soon! I haven’t seen or heard anything since I sold it so assumed it wasn’t being used much, also they registered it as off the road before it even left my house. You’re right though Chris, surely an MOT would increase the value a bit. Good luck to them though if they can make a profit after auction fees.

yikes! What a shame to see such an iconic and well known car not being shown and enjoyed.
