Reebs could this be the oldest now then??? its won't beat Lewis or S525 on reg date as both of them are 1998 registered, but could it beat them on chassis number??
This is the list I compiled a while back to keep track of the early cars, and 001157 is 4th in the list, so yes the earliest I think:


1) The one you saw in Coleshill in October S*** DEH VIN 00 0197


2) S527 OVP VIN 00 1047





3) S902 XDA (1.8 Club) VIN 00 1152
