279 CSL's left in GB

[danp]

Well according to the DVLA records... (there were a peak of 359 at the end of 2005)

http://www.dft.gov.uk/pgr/statistics/datatablespublications/vehicles/licensing/

see: VEH0120 Motor vehicles licensed by make and model, Great Britain, since 1994

At this rate of attrition will be <100 in around 10 years time!

Only 93 x Rover 114 Cabrios I see!

wow...I thought maybe lowish 300's but not sub 300.

<off to buy a dust sheet>

Surely there were a peak of 422 in early 2004? Am I missing something obvious here, or did that figure include the Hong Kong, Aussie, NZ rhd cars too

Must try and bring mine back over for a trip some time and boost your figures temporarily

Might even pick up a Rover 114 while I'm at it!

I thought it was 422 to the UK, not neccesarily 422 RHD....:smt017

BMW registry says 536 RHD worldwide:

So if it was meant to be 422 to UK not sure why there are some "missing" in the DVLA records.. maybe they went to other RHD markets as as the take up wasn't as high as expected?

Quite possibly however there's a number of the UK 422 RHD CSLs registered in Ireland, France, Italy, Belgium, Germany, etc that are unaccounted for as well :bigcry:

Well I know of 7 CSLs over here on RoI plates (all rhd), but only heard of one being bought new here

Does yer man from The Apprentice count as UK if he's living on the Isle of Man? :whistle: :hahaha:

[glendog74]

I know of 4 un-registered RHD cars here in the UK. :thumbs:
