Depends what you mean. Earliest UK cars were registered about May from what I recall. I had a June one and that was a dealer ordered car. _________________ 997.2 C4S PDK

"June" - Are you sure yours wasn't a 2009 car.
I'm pretty sure that the launch of the 997.2 was August 2008 (for the 2009 Model Year) so earliest UK cars were late 2008/early 2009 on a 58 plate. _________________ 2007 Guards Red 997 Turbo Tiptronic

The plate was an xx08 on the C2S. _________________ 997.2 C4S PDK

Mine was first registered 30/06/2008 (08 plate).
The guys at Center Gravity pointed out my VIN, the last 3 digits are very low, they said those digits related to build numbers.
I think mine is a launch spec/demo or something as it has PCCB's, Sport Chassis, PSE, Short Shift, Sports Adaptive seats, Carbon Pack etc. I've seen 2 others specced like mine, same colour, just slight differences. _________________ 997.2 C2 Manual, Carrara White, PCCB, SC PASM w/LSD, PSE, SSK, Chrono, Carbon bits and Yellow Belts
