...your car was first registered? My Coupe was born in May 1998, at that time I was just finishing my first year in high school! How many people have owned a coupe from new?

The only person I know who has owned theirs since new is Barnacle.
My car was registered in something like the 2nd Jan 1998 - and I was travelling in Australia then (so I was probably sunburnt, drunk and wearing trunks)

1998, had just completed my first year working for Nortel. Around 7000 people working there in the couple of years after that, there's now about 100 left! (including me).

Bloody hell, most people seem to have been at school around 97-98?! Man, I'm only 29 and I am feeling mightily old Current Coop was born September 1999, which would've made me 21 and probably very p155ed at the time - regardless of what time of day it was first registered Second one was only 6 months before my current one, so see above My first Coop was one of the first 20v turbos in the country (I believe), born very early Jan 97. That would've been around new year's day during my first year of Uni, therefore I can say with some certainty that I would've definitely been p155ed then aswell. Oh well, that's life eh

Well I wasn't at school December 1997. I was just doing a bit of christmas shopping, probably wearing the shell suit i'd been given for my 42nd birthday the week before. I remember it well as everyone kept mistaking me for Jimmy saville

September 1999. I was 20 years old then. Given the reliability of my coupe it was probably built on a friday eve when the factory workers had a few drinks already

Mine was registered April 1998 - I was at Uni in Leicester. Funnily enough at that time i used to work in a bar on Narborough Road (9 Bar?) the owner of which had a brand spanking new Porto 20VT which i can remember coveting quite considerably. (I was driving a rusty Uno 45S)

Can't wait for Stans post. We ar eall going off memory but Stan should be able to refer to his notes.................... I was proceeding in a westrerly direction down the High Street Funny you should mention that........if I may refer to my notes, m'lud........ I was proceeding in a westerly direction towards a public house, this was a pity as the pub was due east of me but I was walking backwards at the time..... I was on a day off so I would have been blotto at that time
