If you guys read "king" Daves thread earlier this week then you will see the reason for the 33s being so rare.  |

Or just a few more with collections like Paul.
We have 2 33s, and another for spare parts (that I think is still SORNed rather than scrapped).
All the best

I am delighted to confirm that my Series 1 is getting ever closer to a new MOT and as soon as it does, it will be taxed and back on the road, where I hope it will remain for many years to come
This rarity has only had 2 owners, has FSH and has covered a mere (fully documented) 36,000. |

Thanks - only 29 SW's - rarer than the P4s
The pics I had off the guy for the P4 in Sheffield look good.
I am humming about it as just started on SW rebuild and the P4
will divert attention. |

I am so torn between keeping and selling my P4 at the moment, i need to borrow money to get it finished which means selling it to get the money back, but i reeeeeally want to keep it. As in addicted-style reeeeally want to, and your first post DOES NOT HELP!

i`ve got one of those sorn p4s, should be on the road soon after an engine rebuild(its all back in just a few bits and bobs to do) and its only done 36000 miles, i used to have a 1.7 cloverleaf series 2 aswell until i got over enthusiastic with it.
rubbing my hands with glee - i knew they would be worth a few bob in a few years even though i intend to keep mine forever. |

For all of us living in the UK if you’ve got a P4 best hang onto it as it’s a bit of a rare beast – 43 on the road and 25 SORN so 68 total. |
Hello all - first proper post here so I thought I'd better introduce myself!
If it passes the pre-purchase inspection I'll be getting one of those P4's off Sorn and back on the road!
I'm quite excited! Hope it's ok  |

Hi
Amica was a late series 2 white a bodykit, all in white from memory.
We have 3 33s around here. A 1.3 lhd series 3 and the P4, both currently off the road but hopefully that will change in a week or so, and a rhd 1.3 series 3 which is for spares.
All the best

Haven't got all the figures yet as I had to point out to them that they were missing the 1.3 33s, the series 2 TIs, the series 3 1.5 IEs and some of the the series 3 1.7 IEs. But otherwise series 3 - 290 taxed, 126 SORN, but there will be alot of earlier 1.7 IEs. By the way what defined an "Amica"? |
