first time i've heard of that, so if true that would make this one an 83  :daumenhoch:

and mine an early 79 as it has no serial  :)

2xxxx = mid 1979
3xxxx = 1980
4xxxx = 1981
5xxxx = 1982
6xxxx = 1983
7xxxx = 1984

done a bit more research on this that has thrown up Rippers with numbers starting with 0s so not sure that the above is acurate, also talking to people that have spoken to the OM they say that he says that Rippers started getting numbers in Nov 79 and that the numbers were random.
so it seems that we are back to where we started.

pre Nov 79=no serial
nov 79-84 random serials and can't be dated.

any more info on this would be appreciated
