My 55 plate 1.8t was built in April 2004 - it sat around for a year somewhere.

Always a bit uneasy when sellers don't show the reg number - stops you doing essential research on the vehicle.

If that was a contemporary, then they've changed the bright work on the side too, as usually colour coded rather than chrome.

Might have been built out of the parts bin as usual! They were even doing that in the 1970s - my late 1977 Triumph 2500TC (owned since 1987) came out with a Dolomite door mirror ( it's still there, and folk still tell me it is wrong!)
