How Many UK CSis?

  • Zitat von Job38;57865

    Does anyone know a definitive number?


    How many made for the UK, how many left?


    Hello Paul;


    Congratulations on the post one year ownership anniversary of your car.


    Chassis Number and Totals


    All RHD 850CSi's : 160


    Want to know only the UK market versions and UK particular colours? See this page:


    UK 8er Colour Breakdown (including 850CSi)


    Hint: for the UK, out of 160 RHD built, only 153 were delivered to the UK. The remaining 7 RHD 850CSi's went to these countries:


    • Australia: 3
    • Singapore: 2 (both are now exported, one each to Australia and New Zealand respectively)
    • Hong Kong: 2 (one exported to New Zealand and is currently for sale; the other Hong Kong 850CSi is reportedly still there)


    Regarding your other question, how many are still on the road? If you haven't already visited 8Coupe.com's Salvage Listings page, I recommend doing so (heavy hint). We have over 500 8er's listed as Salvage. We add them to 8Coupe.com every other week because we write a little story about each car along with pictures.


    The Australia, Singapore, and Hong Kong vehicles are all still active. For the UK, only 2 have been recorded salvaged and junked out of the 153 delivered to the UK. They are:


    • CC88059

      • Build date: 3-Feb-94
      • Colour: OXFORDGRUEN METALLIC (324)
      • Interior upholstery: SCHWARZ/LOTOSWEIß (0498/N4LO)
      • Owner reported salvage after a serious accident; insurance write off



    • CC88066

      • 18-Mar-94
      • GRANITSILBER METALLIC (237)
      • SILBERGRAU DUNKEL/SILBERGRAU HELL (0497/N4SH)
      • Owner reported salvage after catastrophic accident. Car was shipped to North America and dismantled




    Pictures and more information on these two cars are listed at 8Coupe.com (click on chassis number to follow URL page link - registration required and last I checked, you and your car are registered, so you can review the salvage listings). At this time that's all we have on file for UK RHD 850CSi's that are now salvaged.


    Cheers,

  • One of the Hong Kong ones is a silver RHD, only one owner from new and has only done 20,000km. I've been in it and it is one of the best 850CSi's in the world, everything is simply perfect on it.
