    If anyone is interested for future times when you need to nab something fast, like concert tickets or whateva, generally I've found your smart phone using a 4G network (not connected to wifi) works quite a bit faster than any pc or laptop via LAN/wifi/NBN etc.
    This is what i did and worked a treat, has worked well in the past for other tickets too when ive heard other people having issues on their pc etc trying to get the same tickets.

    I was sitting on a high speed connection and kept refreshing the pages but it didn't come up for at least 30 seconds. All the numbers I had were gone by then. I ended up going for the Wednesday car but 600 went. I got 601, close enough.

    I couldn't believe how fast the numbers dissapered

    My work probably has the slowest internet for a top 50 ASX company

    I ended getting 0909

    Then spent $479.60 on KOM 909 personalised plates

    Thanks for all the comments all. It's interesting to hear what was behind peoples build number selection and the experience they had in getting their preferred number, and rego plates too. It was exciting with the lead up, followed by the experience. Personally, I can't wait to see 0517 on my build plate.

    Just curious has anybody which secured the Motorsport Edition got their 1:18 model yet or that will be given on the day of delivery of the car.

    With Regards the 1:18 Biante model and the special commemorative key presentation case:
    Holden will contact the delivering dealer as the MSE reaches HEC and will confirm the delivery details and Build number for each model and the special commemorative key presentation case.
    Then they will be couriered to the dealer who has the responsibility of hand over to the customer at time of delivery.

    Hi guys, new to the forum here. Have been browsing for about 6 months trying to keep on top of rumours etc! Thought I'd finally join up.

    Got 3 cars on order between my dad and myself. MSE manual red hot, Magnum manual red hot (Was meant to be spitfire but for some reason was allocated red) and an LMF redline sportwagon for myself.

    MSE 0411 - Old man's birthday
    Magnum - unsure yet, not much left that's significant. Might end up with whatever they give us!

    Can't wait for both to arrive.

    Director build number 332..."CALDIR"
    Hi

    Secured a Director with build number "332". As far as I can tell "332" has absolutely no resemblance with anything Holden!

    Regards,

    RTSV6UTE

    From what you've posted earlier, the story that goes with that number is genuine, poignant and just special. Albeit somewhat sad. A champion Aussie born in 1932 orders DIR# 332. Then, in a stroke of bad luck, or just bad timing, has to go into full time aged care and has his drivers license revoked, before he ever gets to see his last and greatest dream car. Let alone drive and enjoy it.
    If I were you, I would share the story with Holden. If I were Holden, I would do something very special for that truest of true Holden fans. He represents what Holden means to me. Not bogamism, but Aussie spirt.
    Cherish 332 mate. It's your car, but it's his dream.

    0331 Represents Chassis 033 (Gabrielle) Craig Lowndes/Greg Murphys 1996 VR HRT Chassis. The 1 represents Craig winning the 1996 Championship as well as Bathurst 1000. Won Sandown Eduro as well. Rego HRT 033.
    My lovely partner actually jagged the number after I cracked the S*&Ts and walked away after missing our first choices, 0033 being one of them. Very happy with the build number.

    Below is a link to some info on the car and the drivers.

    I got Motorsport 357 witch was my 3rd choice. When trying to pick first couple of choices internet was really slow and they were going fast. Ended up with 357 witch is more to do with my other love Competition pistol shooting. as In 357 Magnum. Got Plates KOM 357 with V8 Supercar theme witch look great on the car.

    Thanks, was thinking of having the spoiler and mirror caps red but decided to keep the car as it was delivered, looks great and sure does run very smooth.
