Does anyone know how many was delivered to UK and how many are left in UK?

Does not seem to be any on the market for sale.

From my research there were approximately 15 delivered to the UK and 6 or so remain here, I am aware of 5 including mine.
The dealers I have spoken to cannot confirm this, neither could Valentino from the factory, though it was not exactly his department. There are also reports of only 200 being built in the first place.

I hope more accurate information comes from this post.

There is one French lhd car on the market (Pistonheads classifieds) and I have been bid numerous times for my car since buying it 18 months ago.

Hold on to it Andy, I know I wish I still had mine!

There was a webpage which detailed every one manufactured (I believe it was 186 or 187 out of the proposed 350). Can't remember the link thought (chocolate teapot springs to mind!!!!)

Have no fear a figure beginning with three could not part me from it some months ago, I may regret that one day as values go both up and down, however I have a sneaky feeling these can only go one way in years to come.

It's also the first car I have ever owned and not thought "I wish this thing went just a bit quicker"

That 670 website exposed the damaged UK car, from memory it was a French site called Spykes forum?? though is probably out of date now.

Totally Agree! I though the steering was sublime...and it handling and secondary ride was better than a standard Murci/LP640!

Well done for getting the link out!

Thanks andysv for the registry info. I have number 214. Bought in Chicago, Illinois but it now lives with me just north of Tampa, Florida. My plate reads MURCISV. Will contact the guy to get my info updated on his site.

How much would a lhd car fetch over here I wonder? I am very tempted by one and that's the only option with no rhd available

Nick there is a lhd French car on Pistonheads (you have probably seen it) asking around 230 and looks good in yellow, no UK cars have come to market this year that I'm aware of though I heard of one that was for sale and it actually wasn't, I was offered 300k sometime ago for my car but it would take more than that to prise it away, in fact nearly two years on I can safely say virtually no realistic offer would buy it.

Hi Andy, yeah I saw that car in the adverts not the colour I'm after to be fair. I have eyes on another one which is very promising, going to try see it next week.

I am aware of two that have been brought back to the UK, one is via a main agent that will surface shortly with a big price tag.

I think that should be white in color. Also another white one also just got exported out yesterday directly to the owners home. He has a home here in Singapore and in the UK.
