Can anyone remember the story and/or whether it turned up anywhere?

Seems like the other 102’s are all located in museums but this one has remained missing.

Thoughts?

Was it in the Ecclestone collection recently sold?   ;)

Does anyone remember when Renault had two f1 v10 engines stolen from a French motor show in the early 90's? The only info online I can find is the small paragraph at the bottom of this article on the Yamaha v10 from 1996.
