Default Why aren't there any new saph shells doing the rounds???

Are they all in hiding, or have they been made into washing machines instead??? Seems like there's still a big abundance of 3 door shells and the odd escos, but never any saphs....

Not looking for one, it's just a general observation, you see plenty of new 3 dr and occasionally escos shells about, but never saphs, is it just because they're shit and no one bothered keeping the old unused shells...
