Come up to Wakey Jimmy... We'll treat you to a beer or two. One dodgy Calling and one proper ale in the centre of town at a pub called Fernandes. If you don'g here from Jonny drop me a PM and I can send you his number as he is only about 20mins from me.

My research suggested there are about 2.5k VXs in this country and about 5k on the continent.

My research says:

Worldwide original sold cars: 7207
OPEL = 5052 Speedsters
of which 4052 NA and 1000 Turbos

Vauxhall = 2155 VX220
Of which 1214 NA and 941 Turbos

Last VIN ends with 7967 (of which 789 vins were unused)
dash ends 5052 (euro only)

=========================

It is possible the vin numbers might not be totally consecutive too. The highest build number might not have been the last off the line. Other factors like how busy the spray booth is etc will hold up some cars or speed them up etc.

[techieboy]

Last "VX" off the line was a Speedster.

[VIX]

So the coral VXT was definitely the penultimate?

You can post a foto from inside?
I want to split the air, half for cooling and the other half for the airfilter which in my case is in the boot.

I'm interested, but i don't find any price!?

Too early for costings yet. We do not know yet if we will be able to get the moulds or of we have to make new ones but we'll post up the financials as soon as they are known

Any news??
