My bro had 1010.
I recognise that car I think Jay. There was one used to park outside the pizza shop at the top of Mersey Road, not sure if it was that one or if that was a saloon.

do you know what the numbers actually mean ian? as a mates brother had a 2.6 one and that number was 26 something. newer car than mine yet the number is lower.
i had imagined it was just say mine was the 90003 vectra shell but mates brothers kinda dis-proves that thought.

I always just through they were numbered sequentially as they were done by MSD. His was a 98/S so an early one.
Guess not if there are cars which disprove it.

You may of seen it there yeh, I always used to be in it there, my mate worked in there so. Your more than likely to of seen it across Aigburth Road opposite from Inspired Food (By a Lexus with H151 NOL number plate)

Yeah recognise that Lexus as well. I think I spoke to you a while ago because my mates name is Si Nolan, thought it would make a nice plate for him!

from what i gather off a quick look on, vvoc the early ones were 4 digit, later ones 5 digit starting at 90,000. then again it seems to change wether its an estate or hatch aswell.
looking at it, the 2.6's all start 26,000 which i suppose may make sense from the engine code.
