How many were made - how many are left???

Seemingly each day we read on here of the demise of yet another Scorpio for one reason or another.
Does anyone know how many of each model were made over the production period?

Main site has the production numbers here
As it happens during recent contact with DVLA I asked them how many were taxable on UK roads - they couldn't help but have given me an address to write too!
Don't hold your beath though! 
Will report back if lucky!

Well this site gives the European production run as just under 100 000, with no break down of individual model figures.

And I have one 
Also know of two more saloons in the area plus a few estates (a bit more difficult to track as the rear is almost identical to the older granny and the mondeo  ).

I've seen at least five going back and forth across Nottingham - I know where three of them live but I'm certainly not unique in the area for Scorpio ownership...

I've got one & I used to have another one, & as far as I know it's still on the road, due to the fact that I keep getting speeding tickets for it
If we carry on like this then this subject will be the most posted ever, until someone comes up with the DVLA figures

And I have one and see half a dozen or so in the Grays area so I guess we've got a running total owned and seen of about 30ish so far?
Plus there's 40 odd listed on ebay (shocked to see how little they go for!)

Well I rescued one from near certain death (as long as I can fix it...)
there are also 2 more very close to me (1 Granada Scorpio Saloon, 1 Mk3 P-reg Saloon (unsure on designation, but has higher breaklight & parking sensors in the bumper))
Me - Croxteth, Liverpool
2 I saw - Fazakerley, Liverpool
