Some info on Type 72D I found when I was looking in 07:
.... TX #02 (private sale)
2747 CA #.. British Motor Car Distributors, LTD
2798 WA #06 (mine)
2815 CA #.. Lotus Beverly Hills
3007 IL #.. Fox Valley Motorcars
3021 FL #.. World Imports
3065 FL #.. Prestige Imports
3067 MN #.. Jaguar Land Rover Minneapolis
3128 OH #.. Midwestern Auto Group
3129 MO #.. Midrivers Lotus Preowned Super Store
3142 PA #.. Rothrock Chevrolet-Lotus
3143 OH #.. Mazda Saab Lotus of Bedford
the 4 digits are the last 4 of the VIN.
and here's one currently on cars.com:
3130 PA #13 Morgan Automotive Inc
I know Lotus of Greenwich had 1, as did the dealer in Denver.
And the one from Portland, no idea where it really ended up:
.... OR #43 (private sale)
I bought mine in NV and it ended up in WA, so I can't really say that the origin states listed above are accurate at all. =/
