looks nice but 55 reg is not that uncommon as i've seen a lot more resent

I've seen a handful wearing '06' plates and quite sure I've seen a '07' on ebay as well.

I like that, ''ghost cars'' :cool:

I have definitely seen a 07 on ebay, I think there was a small possibility of a 57 and 08 plate one flying about too

I'm pretty sure I saw one on an 08 plate a couple of years back? I think SMC cars are all on 08 plates as they were forced to register them before new EU emissions laws or something came into play?

55 isn't uncommon tbh, mine was just a month away from being a 55. A lot of the cars in the months after they went bust, would have been sold at a considerable discount, and ended up being registered on 55 or even 06 plates.

The pre-reg cars that SMC still have, are on 08 plates and the very last cars had to be registered on 58 plates, as they didn't comply with tightening emissions coming into force in 09! :}

There's a 55 (November 2005) plate in this sites for sale forum ;) I shall be seeking more detailed build info over the next day or so.

That will be mine. From what I can gather, it was built in late 2004. Where it was until registration is anyone's guess!

The seller seems pretty desperate to avoid any legal obligations pertaining to the sale, prob is, no matter what waffle he writes, people still have their statutory purchase rights innit.. :)

A good buy at the moment though. :)

Nope I was referring to mine :p from what I remember she was built in April 05 and being so late in production I think she may have been hand finished' hence my intention to look deeper at the history.
