I can't remember the last time I saw an RS500 on the road other than at a show, but you at least occasionally see Lotus Carltons. This will aslo give you an indication of how many are left

Is a nice site
. We actually did a lot of installation work on the production line for the Omega's way back when

My Dad actually witnessed the prototypes being scrapped with a JCB
.
Ive seen more RS500's than LC's i reckon.
Ive only ever seen a handful of LC's
Mind you at a distance you dont know if the rs500 is real or some shonky 1.6 replica anyway of course (well, unless its yellow
)
