Of the 507 BiTurbos I have registered around 175 (=35%), of which 8 have been destroyed/stolen/reshelled. Of the rest it is reasonable to assume quite a few have been destroyed so we won't hear of them again. Maybe we can assume 50-100 have been destroyed?

Is it possible due to the B10 BiTurbo's relative rarity to get it insured on a Classic Car Insurance of some kind?

With limited mileage - very easy via Alpina Club Sverige.

Terrible shame to see so many of them destroyed!! I suppose it just makes the ones left worth more!!!

Still though, I dont intend locking mine away in bubble wrap forever. It was built to be driven so driven it will be!!!
