Like me. Seriously, I had no idea. I'm glad you did though, because now I've learnt something.

I picked the car up from a mates property 12 years ago, it had been sitting under a gum tree for 17 years and apart from the rust and gum tree black, it was an aqua/green colour. The car has since been stripped and scrapped. Thanks for clarifying the PMG, can't figure out what the EDP acronym is though. Cheers

Craig Hi
You have unusal PMG Sedan which is Birch grey

S1 means it has extra options fitted like Oil Filter and maybe a coil in the fuel filler to stop people stealing the petrol.

The EDP-8790 is the GMH drawing number showing the production staff what has to be fitted to and/or modfiy the Sedan to meet the PMG requirements.

Hopes this helps

Thanks Barry,
Someone had painted it a greeny blue, on closer inspection there is a hint of grey in places. There werent any extras on it when I bought it. I will have to follow it up with the fella I bought it from.

Hi all,

My EK to add to the list, is it possible to tell if they are original matching numbers without any paperwork?
