I do not know where you are looking but I count 5 Jupiters for sale in October which is the most up to date list.
viewtopic.php?f=7&t=4253#p23225

Are you saying they are now all sold?

2 Jupiters both sold or withdrawn from sale and a special bodied Jupiter that I am not really interested in. Lot of dead end leads on other sites so nothing about at the moment . I can only see 3 Jupiters on the Oct sales page .

I thought it might be. You could try contacting Ed Nankivell, the Jupiter registrar.

Your interest in the forum: I have a 1952 Jupiter SA which I bought from Joe Leach late last year. I also have a pre-war Rolls-Royce which uses much more petrol.

H & H are in a dream world with that type of an estimate - firstly the car would have to be exceptional beyond doubt and have recorded history from new to achieve anything like the guide price that they have put on it - secondly the auction house then demands a buyers premium on top of the hammer price of 12.5% + vat on top of the premium - so if the car made a fluke price of £40,000 the auction adds another £6,000 to the price - £46,000 Jupiter ? - no chance - just like the few other overpriced Jupiters out there with the dealers - there is reason why they are still stuck in their showrooms after several months on the market and remain unsold it's called 'overpricing'
