I tried to figure out how many cars Spyker has manufactured and how many cars have been sold till now. The different press releases and year results give a lot of information but it is still difficult to get a fixed number.
Year___ Production_______Sales________Order book,
2000______1________________0_____________X
2001______2________________0_____________X
2002______3________________2_____________X
2003______12_______________3_____________X
2004______31______________15_____________99 (full year result 2004)
2005______48______________26_____________161+ 31 SSUV (update Q4 2006)
2006______94______________74_____________145+182 SSUV (update Q4 2006)
2007______18(+8 rebuilds)____21_____________(XX orders were cancelled in ‘07)
2008______43______________26(till Q2)_______X
Total:____252___________167___________X
My conclusion is that approximately 252 Spykers have been build until Q4 2008 and 167+ have been sold until Q2 2008.
This leaves a number of +/- 85 produced cars. Production numbers also include development cars, rebuilds, race cars, factory demonstrators, prototypes, et cetera. A crash car can be used several time for tests if it is rebuilt after every crash test. #007 is probable mentioned twice as a production result because it was rebuilt in 2007.
