...with precious little else to report....it was Fusion, entirely original to look at, and i sincerely believe what i read was ***L544104, as it is in my notes going back to then, and was only very close to mine...can't even recall if it was a manual....i gave up the ghost after this one LOL.....cheers

...ps .. you could try ***106...but i feel now i'm drawing a long bow

Yes these numbers are available throught the window in the front windscreen, so just parking your car can have these recorded. Has ben since VN.

I have 105 and 109 as Fusion Manuals, maybe you mistook the 9 for a 4.

....good evening Warren, and thank you ....i guess i must have been mistaken on this account....my apologies....

...a lot of the other numbers received were from telephone conversations that were had with dealers selling a particular CV8Z at the time, or an advert that quoted the ch/no along with all its other details, or just myself peeking through the front 'screen on various occasions...

...this was not a part of any serious research, as these jiggers were still only fairly new and was just an interesting aside to the car that i came to possess, which at quite an early stage of ownership was showing up as being a pretty late example....

....cheers and regards to all....Phil

...thanks mmazz, Marty, Warren and all thus far .. the retail date was as sold to the dealership (more like 10-1-06)....apparently for use by the MD through summer LOL...

my purchase in May of that year was i thought a secondhand vehicle.....hence the $10,000.00 discount on the full retail price, SD and on roads... but when the registration was ''transferred'', apparently i come up as the first owner, as dealer registered cars don't necessarily mean much in the big picture as owners....

...it has been mentioned that it must have been a dealer demonstrator....but that could be countered with the fact that it was registered after the end of model run...??....cheers fella's
