I,ve had several people ask me to list the known survivors both roadworthy or not..
Now this is of course rather difficult,as some i have listed4 odd years ago as roadworthy,may in 2010 not be..
Not all the cars i,ve got the regs which is a shame,and i need help with a couple,but here goes,
1 my own car G250 DOV,fully roadworthy, pampered to death,you know the story!.
2 Nigel bickles G280 CPH,not roadworthy but hopefully will be soon.
3 mrreno-139 cars(or friends cars)i believe this to be a black phase 1(reg?)and on your photobucket pics(excellent!!)you show C145 JGP in the garden,and as posted recently F442 MAA recently scrapped.
4 Paul sage,a Renault GTA specialist lovely silver car F444 EKE,shown as sorned which is suprising as this car was lovely when i last saw it,trying to find out why its not on the road.
5 F82 PLW owned by a renault fan but has had hard rear end damage and is shortly to be broken up last taxed 2002,in contact with owner for some parts.
6 F846 EBV,Black phase 2,not taxed since 2006,not sorned,possible broken up?
7 F600 SFB,this car was on e-bay not to long ago,had a modified engine,different wheels and a strange exhaust exiting out of the centre of the rear bumper,this car is sorned but i think it still survives,maybe the running gear will be removed.
8 lovely red phase 1 sold in Ireland,sure this car still exists,have just contacted the previous owner to ask details etc of Reg and if its still roadworthy.
9 Red phase 1 D898 BGU,owned by the RTOC vice president i think,not roadworthy,but waiting for an update to its progress,again e-mailed owner today for more info.
My list also contains these cars JRU 718N(private reg)phase 1,C280 PMX(rtoc presidents 2nd car)F426 MLT,grey phase 2 burn,t valve,heads removed on e-bay 3 years ago,these cars i think no longere exist,all broken up or scrapped due to damage or bad mechainal condition,
Sorry its hard reading,but several people have contacted me to list what i know,and this is about it.
Its not until i read the list correctly and went through it again car by car did i realise that theres only ONE car thats actually roadworthy MOT/TAXED,and thats mine!!!!!!!
From the listed cars even some of the know non roadworthy cars are on there last legs,thats why i put out the pleee to find any more,
The DVLA couldn,t tell me the number of survivors for some reason?
But it would be interesting to find any more.
P.S anyone have any contact deatils for MOGGS or remembers the name? his dad has a blu 25 Turbo and they also had other nice Renaults in there collection,anyone have any details of him??
THINK he had a 21 Turbo,Turbo 2 etc.

I would guess that anyone with a collection of cars subsidises such by only taxing some of them each year.

I spoke to Paul on Monday about it- its much loved and he won't ever sell or scrap it, but it needs some mechanical work just now and that isn't front of the queue with his Alpine repair activities.
Suggest you PM him or give him a call for details.
