didnt they only make 65000 fd\'s

It\'s difficult to get an accurate picture from that site - as it depends how they\'ve been registered.
 
Check out the Etype - for a strange phenomenon - there\'s more than double what was there in 1994 !!
 
Be nice to know actual fugures for uk cars - does anyone have them?

Weird one with the E-type.  There must have been 1500 E types restored, imported or re-registered in the UK over that time.
RX8 High Power, Cusco Coilovers, Dotz wheels and flames. Shoe Size 12
 
Apparently putting details of your car spec in your signature means the nice folks on exile-rotorsport think you\'re a fool.  I can think of no higher compliment!

If you click on the types it lists, it shows SORN verses registered for the last few years.
 
Still - that\'s an impressive recovery rate :)

Given that in 1994 you could pick up a reasonable E-Type for 20k and they\'re now more like 50 to 80K I daresay people have been digging them out of barns and all sorts to make £££.

If I could get hold of an RX-4 I;d sell my kidneys and my liver for the damn thing! It\'s about the only bit of me left that still functions properly!! lol

Interesting to see how many are Sorn to registered i think and the rise in 7 numbers around the time of fast and furious. I would doubt many of them were sorn back then!

So Mr. Jetpilot - regarding your other thread about getting a next car you should rescue a poor FC3 T2 and earn maximum respect from us 2nd Gen lot ;)

Well i\'m on my second FC now as well then ;)

No excuses :p

jetpilot

Yep, been there, done that and got the magazine it was in :)

There not for me buddy, much prefer the fd experience between the 2 :)

The figures for RX7 2 are probably not for the FC - the FB I have is registered as RX7 2... I don\'t know why, but it comes up as that on the insurance database too...
