Question Model 95 or 99 Kadett Sport Coupe?

I've run into a couple of anomalies in the listing of two specific Kadett model numbers and their descriptions and have pretty much exhausted my resources trying to verify their actual use, or not.

The Kadett LS Sport Coupe is listed in various Opel tech pubs for 1968 as a Model 99, and for 1969/70 as a Model 95. The problem is that I've never actually seen either of these model numbers used as the first 2 digits of any Sport Coupe VIN number, it's always Model 92, same as that of the Rallye or L Sport Coupe!

My '69 Kadett LS has a VIN 92******* and I don't think it's the anomaly, but rather the norm! So, anyone here either own or ever seen anything other than a Model 92 (VIN 92x.......x) Kadett L/LS/Rallye Sport Coupe?!
