With the EF/EL, there are 48,962 (including Fairmonts), not 38,402 as originally calculated. This would mean that 16-17% remain, not 13%.
And with the ED, there are 6607 (approx. 10% left).
The Fairlane has far greater longevity than it's Falcon equivalent - 2061 NC Fairlanes remain which is about 16% of original numbers. 33% of NF/NL Fairlanes remain, which is double the percentage of EF/EL Falcons! And more than 50% of AU Fairlanes, compared to 40% of AU Falcons/Fairmonts.

Too many AU's destroyed through absolute negligence or given away to scrappies due to non existent trade in value.
The pristine gas dedicated ones hurt most :(. Even with the old VIALLE lpg they are the equivalent of a toyota corolla to run and virtually go forever even in day to day domestic use.
