Looks like I don't even have the oldest S in Banbury.

If yours was the 339th car, but the 88th engine, what happened to the previous 251 cars? Did they sell them without engines?

AFAIK the lowest numbers are the oldest - I don't think there is a code in the numbers.

there was clearly something special about the earlier roofs, as mine is an original too
Mine was just starting to show the first signs of going as I sold it (October 99).
