my guess is, that there isn't any "nice" number like "the first 500" or "the first 1000" or so

the DGVWPB says: at the beginning of MY '73 there was the idea to do a black vinyl A-pillar, but because of problems at the gluing process they deciced to let it be after a short time

(Andy might provide a better translation (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif) )
