The named Works Tailored Cygnet & colette series uses Lightning Silver paint, colette-blue body and mirror detailing, blue-faced wheels and edition-specific boot badging. The 2011 factory announcement offered 14 examples; the specialist register believes only two were built, so 14 is not presented as an actual production total. Verify Works Tailored provenance and the actual transmission. Use Cygnet-specific documentation for the 1.33-litre car; the V8-powered Cygnet one-off is a different vehicle.
