a few went through earlier in the year, so i think they may be now with keepers rather than flippers....

The two orange ones sold on Elms Collection website went Asia/Pac, as did my 08 orange one.

Loads went that way.

I've wanted one for years!!

Prices went stupid at one point and hit circa £125k+......back to more realistic figures of circa £90k now but just hardly any being sold now and all the interesting ones (Giallo/Arancio) seem to be long gone to Asia......apart from that crashed Arancio one that appears every few months with the hideous aftermarket body kit!

not so sure sarnie.... coyft has an aranchio one, but that's a keeper, yes there's the crashed one, there was that hideous scissor door aranchio one and I am sure there is one more aranchio in Manchester... coyft also mentioned seeing a gaillo one near his work...

Exactly, we are talking about one or two mythical cars.....which could be in any condition, mileage or service history etc......I'd buy one of the 2-3 white ones that are about if they came up. There was one at a dealer near me for £106k but hadn't been serviced at all in about four years.....

Unfortunately may have to sell mine for an impending house purchase.

Not happy as fantastic car and given the low numbers got to be a good bet long term aswell.

The last one I saw for sale was the black car at GC Motors towards the start of the year, listed at 95k which seemed very good value considering it was fairly low miles and looked a very well cared for car.

Would probably list for 120k today..??
