Only around 250 made & I have an Arden Blue one with 125k on the clock and the rare Monochrome Sat Nav Unit. It needs a little TLC & disappointed when I was forced o fit replacement alloys a few years due to a large rock irrepairablely damaging one of the original alloys- couldn't source a replacement at that time. Was also disappointed that I had to fit an alternative tailpipe when the exhaust needed replaced, as again I could not source an original tailpipe. Anyhow, being a very rare car this will undoubtedly become a classic car in the not too distant future with less than 200 of them still on the road :-)

If you want a project car I'll trade you my Ardern Blue one 😉 I fell in love with my old silver standard Meriva and managed to acquire a VXR one about a year ago. She's mostly alright but got a few issues. I just haven't the money to spend on her that she deserves.
