SNC 663 K The saphire blue car was destroyed in 2005 in a garage fire. The owner had the car since 1975 JGH 773 K. One of mine, when parked outside a friends house the car was smashed into by another car, the driver didn't stop and was never found by the police. The insurance company inspected the car and called it "a total loss" they paid the claim and I was able to buy it back for spares. I have now completely stripped it and all the parts will keep my others on the road. BDE 60 K Mostly rust free but accident damaged and broken for spares in 1989	GVK 358 K Saffron Yellow. Collapsed rear suspension mounts, Differential mounts cracked. Beyond Economical repair. Stripped, Scrapped. 358,000 Miles on clock...the same numberplate number as mleage. NYB 823 L Estate, owners first car! Ran for 4 years or so... very reliable, but eventually was written off after someone drove into the back while it was stationary. The car held up well, and might have been repaired if the shell had not bent... Stripped & scrapped.... still have the engine and may well rebuild it for use in a GT6 or Vitesse. Not sure what the final mileage was, but about 120K
