Snoopy, Gozz, Gost, myself and several others have now struck Amigafan off their Xmas card list!!.  Let's just hope Snoopy is not in a REALY bad mood or the 'D' (Delete) button could be used.

Because Scorpio production ended mid 98 so really the last ones should be R/S reg's.
Because of late registrations there are a few T's V's W's and one Y reg

Stunning example, one thing I would do though is put clear side repeaters but that is my personal preferance, gotta be that last ever one

If i remember rightly it wasnt that late a build date, just the latest registered one we know of, so not the last one ever built, just the last one registered.
As far as I can ascertain, the last Scorpio built was registered in Germany, a 2.3 auto Ultima saloon in Moondust silver.
The latest built UK one was a Ghia diesel auto saloon in Noveau Red

It was actually registered as an S reg, then put on a private plate and when the private plate was removed in 2001, DVLA put a Y reg on it for reasons known only to themselves!

'Y' is of course the year letter for 2001 and even though it was queried by Neil the DVLA insisted it was correct .

Off topic slightly.....just purchased a 1998 Opel Corsa (for daughter) on a "P" plate. Log book says its a 1998 which should make it "R"/"S" I believe. Does not say 'import' anywhere.....

to put everyone who is in doubt .
the "Y" reg car was first reg.in nov98 as S878XAV,then private plate XBZ2165was put on and removed by myself in 2001 when i purchased it, much to my confusion DVLA gave me the "Y" plate.
my wife is responsible as she didn,t like the irish plate and asked me to remove it if possible.
