DeLorean DMC21

Is a DeLorean-esq three-wheel creation by Benjamin Grainer in the UK based upon the Reliant Robin/Rialto with fibreglass bodywork featuring gullwing doors and a pickup truck style rear, powered by a 4-cyl 848cc (40hp) engine with a 4-speed manual transmission.

Grainger changed his name by deed poll to Tyler DeLorean, claiming he was the ‘love child’ of John DeLorean and made plans to sell DeLorean styled automobiles. However, the DeLorean Motor Co in Texas took exception to the potential trademark infringement and pursued action in the High Courts, which they won (2022).

But Grainger might have a last chance as apparently Netflix were interested in the story? A sort of modern day ‘Lady and the Dale’ biopic. But perhaps this is all part of the tales spun to attract attention.
