The facelift was late 2007/early 2008. It included the lipped rear boot lid (S8 got it in 2006) chromed edges to the door pockets, square fog lights, indicators in the door mirrors, different headrests, new rear light clusters, Chromed start button for advance key, New alloys, new gear shifter + others no doubt. A lot of kit started to become standard (not 100% sure on exact date of introduction here, but defo by Mid 2009) like advance key, xenons with daytime running lights, soft close, DAB, 4 Zone climate, Parking System Advanced, Auto Boot, heated front seats etc.

In 2009 you got the 3G Sat Nav, which is worth having if you can find a 2009 model for a few quid more than the 2008 model you're looking at.

Production finished 2010.
Got it

I should made myself more clear - introduction of big grille was in my eyes like a little facelift before the proper facelift
