That said i can't imagine there will be many takers at that price!

Just checked to include the SORN vehicles (the ones declared off the road) and it seems there are now 134 SORN with 54 taxed as of Q4, 2017. Going back to Q1, 2017, there were "only" 56 taxed and 120 SORN so the number in existence has gone up from 176 to 188 :

There is a logical reason for this, when "Continuous Registration" was introduced in 2001, many cars would have been on the "old" system with the old style logbook etc. These wouldn't show on the DVLA system until they changed owners and a "new style" logbook was issued. Also many would have been bought and put away in a garage and left there. The owners have moved, died, emigrated or whatever and the car has been sold so a new logbook has been issued. This is the "barn find" phenomenon where the numbers that are known about increase due to them finally entering the Continuous Registration process.
Another example of this is my Rover 827 Coupé - when i bought it 5 years ago there were only 30 left, 8 taxed and 22 SORN and in the next few months i knew of 6 that were scrapped. However the numbers had gone up by the end of that year due to barn finds, cars changing hands etc. Now there are 20 taxed and 58 SORN as of Q4, 2017 :

Still rarer than a Bugatti Veyron though!
