While looking at the SST, I noticed a circular stamp on the bottom of the SST, not too far from one of the drain plugs. The stamp has 08 and 20 on it. I wonder if it means the SST was manufactured in the 20th week of 2008.
If that is the case, that means the SST was made 2 years before the car, which means I may have a refurbished SST. Sometime ago, SSP had a thread about possible refurbished SST on new cars.

but they didn't say anything about the stamp and the build date of the car. Only about some engraving on the clutch basket.
I know the SST has to be built before the car, but I wonder if it would be sitting in a warehouse for 2 years before being fitted to a vehicle.
Oh well......
