Reallly really really great catch! Congrats! The DX rulez them' all!

'.......wow'
Wonder how many arses have sat in that in its lifetime. As vib said I would love to know the history. I wonder if it's the one I played on nearly everyday in Llandudno on me school 6 week hols.

Only history I know is, I bought it from a guy in Essex, it was sat in his garage a few years but was emigrating so he needed it gone, he said he bought it from the midlands, Birmingham iirc, it was clearly a seaside cab, plenty of wooden chip forks & lolly sticks when I took it apart, yours I presume Beaps

great story that, mate. thanks for sharing. i don't think i've actually played on an outrun duluxe, ever.

That is something you must put right one day
When Midlands/Birmingham was mentioned I instantly thought of m&c cars whom I bought a couple of cabs from via ebay long before I knew about this place, but the years never added up plus I'm sure someone on here will know where his outrun deluxe ended up, when I picked my 2 cabs from him all he had in the game room was a couple of jamma cabs & "that" space harrier deluxe.

how many outrun duluxes are known to be in the uk now? somewhere in the region of.... 5? wild guess.

Not sure but I know 7 off the top of my head
Olly's, Bods, Ordyne, hasn't u72 got 2 lol, not sure of his name on here but Gary?? has a space harrier deluxe as well, had it up for sale when j+ had that collection part & then I saw pics of one in someone's storage unit surrounded by loads of junk.
So I will say 10+ but it would be interested to know how many

Paulinnottingham has one too
I remember seeing the machine listed on ebay. It didn't go for a bad price in the end!
Unfortunately when you live in London the square footage to store an OutRun Deluxe is probably worth infinitely more than the machine itself, hence my 'mini' !!

that's quite a lot. even more than...........virtua racing, i bet! (any version of sitdown virtua racing, not just the deluxe version). i bet there are more stand up outruns than stand up virtua racing too! that's amazing.
