Yep! I know of one such tucked in a hangar otherwise containing a couple of 146s at an airfield somewhere in the Midlands.

With the new single seat deregulation it gets even more fun as any requirement to meet any safety standards at all has been removed for all single seaters - or increasingly older 2 seaters through simply removing the second seat.
