    the white one was XR363 (civil reg G-OHCA) and the Heavylift one was XR367 (G-BFYU). They were finally cut up around 2001.

    XR367 was registered G-BFYU, after looking on airliners.net for BFYU, there are images of it in a very derelict state. One photo caption suggests it was scrapped during 2001. I also seem to remember it being next to XR363 which was also scrapped around the same time.

    Jaybeebee mentioned the one on Ebay a few months ago.

    From what I remember, the ad said item was based in Westcliff, although I think actually it was in Hanningfield Metals yard
