I know of one BRM in a F2 Cooper and one in a Lotus in the UK, and one in a Lotus in California

 

Why are you asking ??

I was trying to establish if there were any P80 still around of the 15 that were built. And are they still in running order?

We had one in Australia twenty-plus years ago...

I haven't kept track of it, but I suspect that it's still here and if it is it would still be running.

 The engine in Australia is fitted to a Cooper which was owned until recently by Bob Harborow who used it periodically in historic events.  I understand that the car has recently been sold to someone else in Melbourne.
