D2 Prefacelift vs Facelift differences
The Facelift cars started rolling out of the factory in Neckarsulm in October 1998, however it was a number of months until they started filtering through onto UK Roads whilst an apparent backlog of pre facelift cars were moved on first. With a little guidance, its easy to tell which you have as the post facelift cars after October 1998 enjoyed the following benefits:
* Front fog lights in the lower front bumper * One piece headlight/indicators with plastic lense covers * Chrome strips to the top of the front and rear bumpers * New engine range with 5 valves per cylinder * Center rear headrest (pop up) with full 3 point rear center seatbelt * Head airbags * Flush fitting pop up headlamp wash * Full colour Driver information system (Trip computer) in instrument cluster * Larger armrests with lift up lids containing phone or storage space * Rounder, slightly elevated exterior door handles * Improved map reading lights built into rear view mirror at front, and the center rear for the rear passengers * Illuminated interior door handles * Cargo net lugs in the boot * Long life service interval option * Rectangular side repeaters on front wings * Menu system in DIS accessible by control by handbrake * Improved center console layout with heated seat switches located down with A/C controls * A/C settings now stored with drivers seat memory * 3.7 engine now has Quattro as standard * 4.2 power up to 310BHP from 300 * S8 power up to 360BHP from 340 |
ooo, one of my favourites the reg lights in the armrests :love:

Yup, they are good... of course, the fact that they actually have storage in them is a goo start +++
They are only illuminated if they dont have the phone cradle in, otherwise you just get the drivers one with lighting +++ |
