Default White Rover 75's - Are they rare beasts now?

Hi

Does anybody know how many Rover 75's were manufactured in white? (it's actually an off white, possibly termed as Dover White but not absolutely sure). I have had a white 2001 CDT for over 9 years now and they don't seem to be that common. Just wondered if anyone had this piece of trivial information!

Thank you.

No idea of numbers buddy but they're extremely rare I reckon
Also extremely nice looking
Reebs is possibly the man to answer yr question though

I think it's the same colour as Old English White but called Arran on some Rover's Anna
It's possible that the Cowley cars were Arran white but records are lost I think.
I'm sure someone will explain it soon
