Car details from Chassis number
Not sure if this has been posted before but thought it'd be interesting for those who haven't seen it.

Creme de la Creme; a Limited Edition (1 of 19 if you're SB, 1 of 38 if SG) of a Limited Edition (422) and didn't know it? Startling revelation of the best kind
Although there is no mention of what this actually means, anywhere, that I can find! In the absence of anything else, it probably means you can blow your engine easier by not having the limiter fitted, as you'll have a higher top speed and Rev range, I would assume never having put mine to the test. Perhaps one for NZ_M3, giraffe or gorilla chip in on and enlighten us ignorant owners.

Did you think it meant that the redline rev limiter had been removed Neil?
