Hi Dean, basically it's all because of anti aliasing. Connecting two renders that are supposed to fit together by using multiplication (an Over operation, for example) will not result in a perfect connection and you will see a little black line between them (see attached example which will explain this way better than how I wrote it). The way to fix this is to use either a Plus operation or a Disjoint-over operation. If you look at the math of this you can see exactly why. By multiplying that edge again when doing the Over operation you are contracting the edge further and that results in an edge. This won't help your predicament, though. What you have is the car and then the shadow cut out of the car. The white halo was simply that same black line from the example. Usually I ask for the shadow renders to be rendered without them being cut out from the object. That way I don't have these edges. If anybody has any better ideas I would love to hear them.
Hope this helped. (on a computer with no Nuke license, hence the .nkple file).
