google BMW Vin Decoder - pick a website, enter the VIN number, and it will show you the build date

Interesting Taz - why was yours built out of sequence?

Mine is LJ50580 with a build date of 12/02/08

What was the production rate? How many were built from then to the end of production?

very good question to which I don't know the answer, I can only assume due to options they must take a day extra to complete so come off the production line a day later

Having created the OP I should have explained why - I was looking at buying the last one LF69496. I paid for it and was on the train to collect when i got a call that it had failed the MOT for a broken spring. I asked them to replace the other side, as invariably they go at the same time. The answer was no, which at the price being paid was ridiculous. So, I pulled out on a point of principle.

Anyway, it's been for sale for months and it's now been sold. It is a lovely fully specced car, so I hope the new owner enjoys her.

My white 3.0si Coupe is gone and I now have an E92 M3.

I will be back though when I find the right Z4M Coupe.
