Poole, dorset, it was a showroom demo car given to the customer at the time after their Std GTi went up in smoke with a coil pack failure!.

Mine was Regestured 1st Feb 07

as above 1st Feb, although my guess it was in the country earlier then that being it was sat in the showroom as a "Show car"

mine is 56 plate registered 11/01/07. Sidlow Gatwick exdemo

if the plaques are done by chassis number then the registered date is only a guide i would think

Who wants to be first  :huh: ?

I'd want to be number 30  :evil:

 i would like no 1 ! but suppose just getting the plaque is good enough  !  do we get one for each side or just the drivers side ?

mmm, mine maybe somewhere in the top 100-150. thats my stab at what number i am.

Or id like one which is reflective of its horsepower. 237 would be a good bonus  :smiley: :smiley:
