View Full Version : 279 CSL's left in GB
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! ;)

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:
http://www.bmwmregistry.com/model_faq.php?id=19
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 in theory we have lost 100 give or take (nearly 1/4)
if that is correct you may find say 20 in Eire, and and another 20 in Europe and maybe another 25 in bits along with say 10 race cars - that means we are still short 25 ish

Believe a good number were exported to RHD markets even brand new. Mine was brought over from the UK to HK in early 2004 by the first owner and was never registered in the UK. I'm the second owner of the car with 10K miles - you don't get that much road in HK to drive around. Now I can claim that I'm a proud owner of one of 422 :supz:

Haha..I certainly am. Although it's not getting a huge amount of use..2000 miles in 6 months. Gonna head down to the Fest of Speed in Adare in a couple of weeks to give it a bit of a run
No plans for tracking just yet, but might be tempted at some point. You had the new one out or over to Germany yet?

Drop it down to Mondello and leave the keys in it and I'll clock up some miles on it for you!! ;)
Anyway you are going to have to break your track virginity soon! I'll let you know next time I'm out and bring you for a few laps and get you into the spirit of things!
No Germany yet this year, probably head out in September though, doing some work to the CSL first.
