475 approx, I think. The survival rate is surprisingly high.

The minx estate must be quite rare. Any photos?
I have a Series 111B saloon which has been off the road for years but is still in pretty good condition. Also have a Series 111C saloon which I may end up breaking (need to check to see how bad it is first). The minxes drive really well when in good condition - I think the build quality is excellent and that they are very under-rated.
