No idea, first time I've heard of this index. What does it stand for?

It's the PostmanPot index of rareness. You keep telling us that X is rare, that Y isn't, and happily throw sales figures around. So I'm assuming you can quantify what constitutes rare numerically.

I'm afraid I'm not an encyclopedia, but I do know some figures of cars I've been interested in. I think it's best you just accept the fact that a B7 S4 is a very rare car.

I'd find it a lot easier if you could just provide the number smaller than which it's rare. I'm not asking you to memorise the sales figures for anything, just the number of vehicles on the road beyond which something is no longer rare. 100? 1000? 10 000?

I would say around 100 or less in SA is rare, because one is unlikely to see them on the roads.

Remember that various perceptions and experiences mean different ideas of rarity.

I think you should stop being a rusty spanner in the works.
