On January 21, 1981 the first DeLorean DMC-12 rolled off the factory production line at the factory in Dunmurry, a suburb of Belfast. 2021 marked the 40th anniversary of this famous car, and for this occasion a DeLorean Anniversary £0 Souvenir Note was printed.

The DeLorean Motor Company (DMC) was an American automobile manufacturer formed by automobile industry executive John DeLorean in 1975. It is remembered for the one model it produced—the stainless steel DeLorean sports car featuring gull-wing doors—and for its brief and turbulent history, ending in receivership and bankruptcy in 1982. In October 1982, John DeLorean was videotaped in a sting operation agreeing to bankroll drug trafficking, but was acquitted on the basis of entrapment.

The DeLorean was memorably featured in the Back to the Future film trilogy (1985, 1989, and 1990) as the model of car made into a time machine by eccentric scientist Doc Brown, although the company had closed down before the first film was made.

In 1995, Liverpool-born mechanic Stephen Wynne founded the current DeLorean Motor Company located in Humble, Texas, and shortly thereafter acquired the remaining parts inventory and the stylized "DMC" logo trademark of DeLorean Motor Company. Read More
