I didn't realise there were only three in the UK

Two were at Burghley, one with Paddy and ours up at the house. Not a picture at Burghley but from Ed's at the Wittering event.

I found myself talking to one the guys high up at Gaydon and just took advantage of that and asked him.

He did say its not information they would normally share.

Just a brilliant part of the Burghley weekend for those lucky enough to be able to go.

It's a mate's website, idea being to keep your car's provenance, any restoration work or mods and records in one place.

Keep it private or not, transfer to a new owner or just capture things and stuff you've done for posterity, videos , pics or documents.

They have some quite interesting price trending data going on to.

And they remind you when the MOT is dues...

Ah right I'll take a look. I was fortunate that mine came with receipts and paperwork going back to '62 (son only 3 years missing) and I just keep adding to that in a folder so it's all in one place.

I get that ;-)

If you were selling, you could share that data to potential buyers. There is evidence that it can help maximise your selling price too. Obviously not compulsory or indeed for everyone :-)

Would love to know how many Flugplatz coupes there are in the UK.
Less than 10?

Like the yellow, but the red interior just doesn't work with it. I'm not a fan of black interiors, but in this case it would be 1000x better. That car was for sale for a long time in Chicago, now for sale in Florida. Chicago dealer must've given up trying to move it and wholesaled it on.
