Interesting Sky Motoring video clip on it too. It seems that they have reduced the quantity from 200-units to 175 and have sold half of them already.

As they say - 80% of statistics are... err... anyway...
While we are on the subject of production numbers, did we ever get a decent breakdown of Aero production for the different series 1-4?
I only ask, as I'd be interested to see which Aero Series is the rarest. Probably the Series II, but given Aeromax production in parallel with Series IV, the S IV will be a pretty rare beast to I would imagine. Probably as rare as the Aeromax / SS I'd hazard..
Series 1 - based on chassis numbers around 300.
Series 2 - based on chassis numbers around 100.
Series 3 - based on chassis numbers around 200.
Series 4 - based on chassis numbers so far around 150.
Aeromax - 101(!)
That would mean a series production of Aero based cars being around 850.
Charles spoke earlier in the year of it being 1000 cars. Is he rounding up? Is he including the SuperSports?
At this rate the Series II and the Aeromax look like the 'rare' cars. The Series III / IV will probably be no less limited than the SuperSports...

I think the 1,000 Aero's is a bit of a slight exaggeration, as 150 S4's may be There are a good few gaps in the chassis numbers as far as I can see.
I'm up at the factory 1st September so will see if I can find any more definite numbers.
Aero 8 GTN. #10

Hi Ian - be interested to know. Not interested in overall nnumbers (happy to leave Charles some mystery there, and after all I doubt there is an exact count anyway), but interested to know what is rarest Series II or Series IV if the proposed end of production is indeed the end of 09..
