Great idea. Who knows which chassis number Michael Schumacher bought?

In three years, twenty seven prototypes were constructed: five of the first series (chassis n° 1.1 to 1.5, in 2002), eight of the second series (chassis n° 2.1 to 2.8, in 2003), five of the third series (chassis n° 3.1 to 3.5, in 2004, two last being intended for the crash-tests), four of the fourth series, the "pre-production" or PVS (chassis n° 4.1 to 4.4, between February and May 2005) and finally five of the fifth series, called "series 0" (chassis n° 5.1 to 5.5, between May and July 2005).

The n° 001 was delivered to a French living in the USA and the n° 007 with the woman of Ferdinand Piech... Ursula Piech. I do not know for the moment, the choice of the colours for these two models.

A car with the same colors is now at the showroom of Hessing in the Netherlands. I believe it will be there only for 2 days...

J.J.Horst · **Posted:** Wed Apr 26, 2006 1:54 pm

Probably the same car??

Herman · **Posted:** Wed Apr 26, 2006 4:22 pm

I think so, yes. Telegraaf mentioned the car already had run 16.000 km (so should at least have been running for 40 hrs: 16.000 / 400 = 40...)

Probably a show or demo car. I could use a demo...
