Fred,
I promise you there are more than 3 Spitfires in the UK! But I think their
rarity is part of their appeal. As you say, there are MGBs on every street
corner, but it isn't often that you come across a Spit - and because of that, it
makes it so much better when you do!

Yep, I'm back. Spend 5 glorious weeks in the UK, touring the
northern islands to Iceland, Copenhagen, and Brussels. I said before
leaving I'd check out Spitfires.... Well I can tell you that there are
3 Spitfires in England & Wales! Or maybe it was the same blue one twice
and a yellow one.
Can't figure it out, what with the 20plus degree 2 weeks we
drove all over Wales and part of England, only the 3 spits, all MK IVs.
Nearly got swamped in MGBs, Morgans and a few other exotics, but no
Spits.
