yeah, i guess it's possible.
the silverstone was a german special edition and i have heard of "one off prototype" cars being sold on to the rover staff or general public

I'm sure I've seen that Silverstone Prototype on Ebay before, or it could have been another Silverstone Prototype maybe! 
There was defiantly one on Ebay before, I think around the same time I was looking for my Mini (March 2007)

My cabriolet was allegedly a 'prototype' shell but I bought it as a shell from Tickford and it was a wreck when I first got it. I would guess these UK silverstones dont really class as a prototype, more of a 'market research' vehicle where they were used to guage interest from dealerships and the public perhaps - I see quite a lot of this kind of car through work and I'm sure it was just the same in those days.
