I did a little bit of research after being curious as to how late in the production run my new JCW was and came up with the following useless facts that could come in handy if you ever play trivia pursuit and are faced with questions concerning the last R56s produced:

11/16 - 2 Non-S Ice Blues produced

11/18 - 4 JCWs produced
2 Ss produced
15 Non-Ss produced

11/19 - 1 JCW produced (Midnight Black/VIN T379699/mine)
1 S produced (British Racing Green/VIN T397279)
23 Non-Ss produced

11/20 - 9 Non-Ss produced (Last one was Chili Red/VIN T692668)

I thought it was interesting how they wound down R56 production. Hopeful that at least one other person will find this interesting.

If you want to see what day your car was produced and all the options you can use http://www.bmwarchive.org/vin/bmw-vin-decoder.html.

Interesting that so many of the last ones produced were non-S, but I guess that's for all markets and would include the Cooper, One, etc., yes?

Pretty cool you got the last R56 JCW. Congrats!

Very cool indeed. I'd love to have your car or the S in British Racing Green.

Thanks! Purely coincidental and luck.

Yes! Pretty cool!
I have the 09' S in British Racing Green. I will check the history of this Mini!
