169 still on the road according to this...
https://www.howmanyleft.co.uk/vehicl...2_quattro_auto Pushing 20 years since the last ones were made & a quarter of them still in use. That probably says something about the ownership group, but also a hell of a lot about the car. There can't be many cars with a comparable rate of survival. |

I've not thought about it as a percentage of the originals. 25% is much less depressing than only 170 remaining. There are almost twice as many Aston Martin DB5s left

And pushing 20 years since I bought my first one! Just 3 months to go for my "China" S8 anniversary.
Really weird thing is that my current one (only my second) was built exactly 2 weeks before I bought my first..... ![]()
