Late one, so should have W or X prefix on plate only.

No need to say a word here. The figures speak for themselves.

Still, I have to say that I always rather liked the minimalist design of that particular car although I've never seen one "in the flesh". Much more elegant than the Horizon.

:think: right now we are discussing in my plate-forum the question "the rarest Youngtimer" - and this car should be ranked very high IMO. As I've read (a time ago there was an article in a classic car magazine about it) the fan-scene is also in the UK very very small.

btw.: as recently discussed here, too, the leading opinion there is also, that the rarest 70ies/80ies car nowadays is the /vehicles_make-Alfa+Romeo_model-Arna.html

Could be, but don't forget the early Japanese cars that were available here in Europe from ca. 1970 on. With the exception of some pampered, high-priced 280Zs and maybe a few Celicas they literally all have been thrown away.

"Here in Europe" is too widespread, as it was different in each country. So Germany was one of the countries with the smallest and as latest started import-amounts. Absolutely not comparable with for example Norway, Denmark, Switzerland or Belgium.
