Ah, the Gordon Keeble. Don'cha just love it?

Well, I went away and checked, and came up with the researcher's nightmare.

Peter Nunn writing in Classic & Sportscar April 1983 says 99 cars, but allows that there is argument over the figure.

Quentin Willson on BBC Top Gear in 1993 categorically says 104 cars.

He also interviewed Jim Keeble, builder of the car, who declared the creature to be a tortoise, which disgraced itself on the bonnet of the prototype and the paint peeled off.

I think over to Mr Question Master.

What's your official decision, Graham?
