The registration date doesn't necessarily match up with the manufacturing date.

I've seen a July 2006 car registered on a 57 plate (i.e. after Sept 2007).

Put the last 7 digits of the VIN number into RealOEM and it should tell you the manufacturing date.

Mines a 58 plate, registered in Dec 2008. Build date IIRC is July 2008, which I think was the last for RHD cars.

So does anyone have a Z4MC reg'd after Dec 08?

This.

Mine was an 08 plate but the sticker under the bonnet said it was made in mid-2006! No idea where it had been in the meantime.

I thought the last one built was June 2008 (LG19054)

You may well be right, I just checked mine and build date was April 08, with registration in Dec.

As was mine. Build date was July '08.

Theoretically, it's possible that there are some cars still lying around unregistered (although extremely unlikely), but July '08 was the last month they were manufactured in RHD.

Nope, mine had a July '08 stamp on the turret.

I'd love to be able to tell you, but I sold it 13 months ago.
