yep but 17 Aug 1999 cant be a T - Its a V.....

 No T plates ran from Mar 99 to Aug 31st 99, so it is a T plate and not a V......  ;)
And if it's a face lift model then it would be a "Press Car" for the car mags to test drive.

reg letter is correct for 17th august
really does seem sus though, i thought they were only released on sale 1st December 1999, while prefacelift went to 2000W

V Plate Started 1st August 1999





http://www.ukcar.com/features/reg_year.htm

I checked a few other other web sites after this one, and it is this web site that is wrong.  The forum members are right.  It is a T plate and is registered correctly according to the reg date given, now the face lift bit is annother thing.

I know the last mini facelifts were on a V plate. As said could be an early promotional model.
    I can't think of any other reason. :)

Just trying to find more info on face lift dates.

Wikipedia info list this for the engine.

X25XE 2.5 L V6 with 167 BHP (replaced in 2000 by X26SE 2.6 L V6 with 176 BHP)

X30XE 3.0 L V6 with 207 BHP (replaced in 2001 with Y32SE 3.2 L V6 with 217 BHP)

So really the facelift drifted in in various levels and had 4 V6 options fitted in it's time.

My Gold Elite was a 99 on a V but they held off regestering it until 2000, so i could believe that this would be right.

If i remember correctly PP is a luton reg identifyer so that could tie in with the 'promo car' theory, however when you see promo cars they are generally fully loaded and i would have expected to see leather and poss sat nav in there
