How this model's appeal has changed in the last five years!
A quick check of the "How many left " website for the UK shows a combined total for all models (P1800/1800S/1800E/1800 ES/1800 ES Automatic) at 659 of which 435 are licenced, the rest are on SORN.
From what I know there are mix ups on the DVLA records between models. My car is shown as a P1800 despite it being a 1800S.
To put the numbers into perspective
Aston Martin DB4/DB5/DB6 there are 779 licenced in UK
Jaguar E Type over 6,000 licenced in UK!

they have always been scarce since I first saw one in 1971 , I guess the rusty ones all disappeared long ago ...
