Sportlines

Hi, I now have both colours and I’m interested if anyone has any info on the latest figures of how many of each are still around ?
And we’re they numbered when built ?

Any info would be appreciated

Have you check www.cabby-info.com Kammy has a registry there by year and the productions numbers as well.

Apologies for only coming back to this now.

There were 449 sportline or thereabouts registered to the UK market. Dated from 90/91 to 93 with a few registered in early 94. 


Mixed reports as to how many were black and if it was a 50/50 split etc. in my opinion there were definitely more red than black. I could never get a proper breakdown. 



They weren't numbered like say the mk4 anniversary model GTI.  But did have a code on the white boot sticker to represent a 'special' model. Have a look…

Congratulations on the two cars btw. 

Many thanks shughy

499 was also the number I’ve been led to believe

I really thought there would of been more clarity on the split, I was also led to believe it was 50/50 but A, that doesn’t split into 499 and B, I’m also in agreement that red is more common.

I didn’t start out to get both colours, it just sort of happened
My aim was and still is to get a collection of all my favourite hot hatches again that I owned when I was a kid.
BUT…… two of one model sort of slows that up a bit, obviously due to funds
And it’s not just the sportlines
I’ve got two the same on another flavour too
Here’s a pic of my collection so far for anyone interested, I’ve not got a pic yet with the black sportline with them but will shortly
