It's amazing isn't it...

A car manufacturer makes some of the sexiest cars in the world, but cannot give a fugure of how many it actually made.

Bloody useless!

I wonder if there is a data base of all the cars of a certain model that have been scrapped. This information must be available somewhere, after all what's the point in sending this info to DVLA if they do nothing with it?

Best and most reliable claim I think was 1966.

Just to throw a spanner into the works:



I think it was Omerta who collated this info?

They're rare alright, but 400 sounds a bit pessimistic to me?

Anyone fancy writing to the DVLA for a FOI enquiry?

Not really.When you consider how many have been written off due to accidents fire etc over the years.Then probably 400 is nearer the reality.

So if we're saying that there was somewehere between 1400 and 2000 cerberas built, 400 remaining results in an attrition rate of between 80 and 130 a year.

Two cerberas a week getting written off?!

Thanks guys

sorry for the topic being posted before - just interested as one on the things that bugs me about my chim (well, a little bit) is that they are (relatively) plentiful.

400 left out of 1500 to 2000 - bloody hell, the widow maker or what!

still want one!
