As far as I know there are only two genuine ones left in the world. One is in Bletchley Park and the other is owned by Mick Jagger!

ERrrm, no. There are thousands (well, at least hundreds) out there still in existence.

This guy has a few of them, and schleps them to hamfests:

At the last one I saw him at (back in September), he had a complete Wehrmacht Enigma for sale, with all of the rotors, for $20,000.

Four rotor Naval Enigmas are extremely rare, though.

You should be able to contact him at his website. Besides which, he is a ham radio operator, so you could look his callsign (W1TP) up on qrz.com

EDIT: You know, this thing isn't worth 100K, right? I had one that was in exceptional condition and it was only worth about 10K.

Note that $100K is his "buy it now price", not necessarily the best offer he is willing to accept. That said, a thing is worth exactly what someone is willing to pay for it.
