808 would be August 98, and I think there was an orange/white clockwork that year.

Got any pics?

Looks like a 98 clockwork.

Silver P7 is most likely 1 1/8

OK mate just because there was no clockwork sticker do you know Stefano with the pace with all the blue bits txt him but no reply also my p7 has little bits of rust on it and clear coat peeling I was going to sand and buff it to make it proper shiny will them little rust pits come out thanks

I have two Oranges listed with 'MT' on my list. Both are P7s. So it seems based on this small sample set that yours is also a P7. You might want to contact Orange to see if they can give you any history - please update this thread if you get confirmation either way.

So if it's a P7 does that mean it's a respray or does p7 come in them colours that year

Have a look at the catalogues in the Archive section.

That's a vastly more common scheme - August 1996 built. E2, Clockwork, P7, C16Rs, Vit/Vit T2 all produced in that factory.
