Ok, so far we've got confirmation of 5 Rev1s, three of which are early (first two thousand) production cars.

1. Peter C - Nov 89 - 304th built
2. Steve K - (?) 89 - 1,443rd built
3. Rob Shipp - Dec 89 - 1,936th built
4. Pintovit - (?) 90 - 12,740th built
5. Swissheavy - (?) 91 - 34,351st built

Considering that the cars were exported worldwide it's great that we have 3 early cars in the UK and registered on IMOC. Pintovit is based in Portugal but his car is not an early model. Swissheavy, sorry buddy but you're car is just too new!

Anybody else? Check your log books and seat belts, lets make it a proper list.

[SwissHeavy]

Yeah it appears to be that way, mine was registered in March 1991, which explains it. As said before, just under 60,000 Rev1's were produced, so expect to see a few higher than mine, though maybe those were exported to other countries.

Lucky people to get one under 1000.

Old post ,but any further progress with this list ?

[HighwayStar]

No, but I can tell you number 1936 now has bilstein, tein and trd suspension and rogue rev 6 lights ... and is just about to turn 210,000. The rear plate is also back in it's usual position. Three years is a long time.

Interesting thread. For the record got number 1085, registered 19/4/1990. Thought it must be early when i noticed all the zeros after the sw20 bit ! Unfortunately been off the road for while till I get the time to do a few bits on it - hopefully that is coming soon.

[JDM-MAT]

my chassis code is SW20-0014668, seat belt says 1990 then 9 years later on the 1-8-1999 she came to the UK. then 11 years later on the 12-8-2010 she came to me and to say she has done all them years and only 90k miles she is in very very good condition loverly car.

My MK2 T-Bar Turbo is SW200000407 and has ABS, PS & TRC & reads only 46000 or so on the clock

[HighwayStar]

Get some pics up then, just a mk3 in your garage...

[Ren0W]

My chassis code is SW200105719.

Meaning it's the 105.719th?


But according to SwissHeavy' post:

Revision 3 - November 1993 to June 1996
Chassis JT163SW2000087386 to JT163SW2000106662

How come I got one 0 less?

[DAN_REV1_TURBO]

Bah, mines 20,410. Thought it was 410th then noticed the other digit! Would be quite nice to have one of the first few hundred, like number 500 or something Not that it really matters!
