Sorry Mart,it doesn't come up in the EPC. Was his car this one you saw way back when Post No.70 at the bottom of the page ? Get him to confirm the VIN, if so it's the earliest in the club |

seriously mate I looked at that window plate last week its definately 1157 chassis number on S392 DEH ???
That car has personaline interior also in neptune blue.The car is a minter with only 22000 miles from brand new built in 1998. Here it is at a St1ng road show two weeks ago. 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??

OVP's history is nothing to shout about, it was used as an on site general dogsbody and finally dumped when it needed money spending on it. .
It does beg the question:- Is it worth spending any more money on OVP?? as it's quite possible that another/older car in better condition may well turn up in the future? ... |
