UPDATE:
From before I bought the car I wondered why it was such a high number (No. 434) when every other Gordini on the forums were under number 100. Actually, the Gordini on show at WSR was one number off mine.. number 435 iirc.
I got on to Renault UK and asked them if they could find out about my query. I received an update today that explained why.
The Gordinis are given a number when they are built and then when they come into England they are reassigned a UK number. Mine was supposedly 'missed' and they have offered to to give it another number.
I have requested to keep number 434 and another Gordini not to be giving this number. It might be a bit anal but 4+3+4 = 11 which is my lucky number LOL.
