Electic Blue S New car, got a bit unsure! (Early production)

Hi guys and girls!

Norway calling!

I just wrote a import contract on a Mini Cooper S R56 first registered in Germany 18.09.2006. The car is laser blue with white details, sunroof and almost fully equipped. The car has only run 3500 km and the previous owners are BMW themselves (Known as "ex-works" cars. "Ex-works" being the term used on cars owned by BMW)

Im staring to get kind of worried since I read about a lot of "rattle" etc from these cars.

My questions are as follows:

1. Does anybody know if there are some known issues with early production cars?
2. Even though my car is produced in 2006 is it called a 2007 model?
3. When did production of R56 start and when did production of R53 stop?

Best Regards

K
