From a nerd on the internet:
Talk about theatre and clicks. You say there were six new customer cars, but you feature what is obviously XP5 in three of the slides in this post. You can even see the red T-handle for the emergency shutoff. If XP5 is there, I'm guessing the orange car could be RX71 DUH, which is XP10, and the blue car could very well be T50 SVO, another production prototype and a very well traveled press car.
Thanks nerd.. sorry, I mean Duncs!

Do they come with what I assume is an external fire extinguisher handle or are they pre production as has been said? When I’ve seen Gordon Murray interviewed he doesn’t seem like the sort of bloke who would let stuff like that into general production.

HaHa, there was a time when I might have been
that interested in unobtainium cars. Nowadays I'm a lot more rooted in the real world, which is a shame in many ways!
