My mistake, my first Cs80 was serial number 1014, bought from Peter Forrest
at the turn of the century of thereabouts.
My current CS80 which ive had since about 2003 has a serial number around
1200 i think.
I always thought there were about 2000 made, but perhaps only 800-1000 after
all. I wonder how many are still working and how many got broken up for
parts or scrapped? Maybe 500ish still survive?
I bet Vangelis still has a few hahaa ;)
Ill never part with mine
