    sounds about right Tim, back then alot of the cars were unknown, i think most are covered now, always love to find new ones tho,

          Different times then Dave, communication has changed so much, people are more aware and a sniff of an 18 gets around like wildfire now....but there's always an exception now and again to surprise us all.

          A lovely thought Iain...maybe one or two expired rally cars lurking about in some barns somewhere. It's all about being at the right place at the right time...I wish!

              I think this was the figure for original road going 18's. Originally a build total of 109 18's keeps on being mentioned but I don't think this figure included the works cars or cars built up by individuals for competition etc.

              Dave might be able to give you a better idea.

                            16 cars seem to be drivers, with the rest being restored and a couple in an unknown state, no works cars all road cars, forgot to say this includes southern ireland as well, of which there are 4 cars
