I would guestimate no more than about 600 (licenced, excluding SORN) probably a lot fewer. If the campaign model was build in Aug/Sep '83 then they must be included in the 83 and 84 numbers. I say probably fewer because not all the GTIs registered in 83 and 84 will be campaigns, but there is no easy way to find out which (that I know of).

Someone should have the stats somewhere from the old site registers I guess?

At a rough guess I'd say 1,000,000

There are conflicting views on how many we're built in the 1st place so it must be impossible to say how many now exist.

Campaign was produced from April not August 1983.
from here http://vwgolfmk1.org.uk/index.php?page=cedi&type=misc&id=47

Does anyone know how many were built in each colour?
I don't think we'll ever know that

The letter from Dano is the best indication of what was built for the UK but that's it.
I was selling them and they were like chickens teeth to get hold of, I mentioned this in other posts.
In short.
If a dealer wanted to order just one, they would be forced to take 1, 2 or even 3 other pieces of stock that were not selling well (not only Golf) and therefore hard to shift!
It's a bit like the answer to "Life, the universe and everything? "
Well that's the way I see it and let the market decide the value.
One thing is for sure, the value of our cars, along with many others will not go down.
Super cars, well we've all seen how they can seriously crash over the last 30 years!
But we're not in it for the money, are we?
