Question - When did they call Flame Red Flame Red? Because in my brochures it says Burgundy Red? It also calls 'Dark Grey' Storm Grey!

Mine was over two months ago, tried again today to be told I had already tried to register and to wait. Oh well need to wait a bit longer.

332 running very well indeed.
Trying slowly to restore it to full original condition, just need a couple of small items now and it will be finished.
In daily use though.

I haven't got a Celebration :cryhard: but I followed Davey's link anyway just for a look, and you can register all models of 480 on there :D

Even more surprisingly, there is the name of the guy on there that I worked with at a previous company and never knew he was into 480s!! Sent him an email to say gotcha! I had the 440 at the time I think....maybe he kept it a secret to prevent jealousy :P

Yep - despite getting close to selling it before and then (fortunately) seeing the error of my ways, I still have No 73.
