I'm sure that it wasnt the only one used in filming, infact in the very first episode (The one where he goes to have the exam) he has a orange Mk2 (Apparently a body of a Mk1 with Mk2 fittings? According to Wikipedia) but it was involved in a crash and was replaced with the Green one.

[Retro_10s]

There's a topic i made at the top of the section which has all the relevent links on it to find out if a mini is still on the road/ in existance.

[Shifty]

It was in "Cars of the Stars" Mueseum in Keswick.

Might be worth looking at their website?
