Who's A500 was the first
« on: February 10, 2011, 04:55:43 PM »
On seeing Simers "Happy 2nd Birthday" topic, I wondered which forum member had their A500 first.

Mine was July 3rd 2009 so it's nowhere near the oldest.

Anyone know?

Just to confirm the first A500's were UK registered in January 2009 of which there were 34 these as Chris suggests would be Dealer and FGA vehicles. In Feb 09 there were just 3 Red A500's registered of which Simers was one (there had been 3 Red A500's registered in the January as part of the 34).

Mine's just a bit younger than simer's, as it's 2nd birthday is last week of March ;D Not sure how I will be celebrating it yet, but more than likely giving it a service ::)

So the first A500 registered by a still active forumite is  Simer's, registered on 9/2/2009?

Unless you know differently......
