Subtle differrences?

[magnumsport]

Hey guys and girls!

I've tried to have a look around the forum but can't find exactly what im looking for.

Could someone quickly tell me the differences between a facelift and a pre-facelift mk4 ibiza cupra? or point me in the direction of where i could find this information?

Thanks very much in advance

Jamie

As far as I know, there isn't anything that gives it away from the outside except the year on the registration plate!

isn't it just the FR that was facelifted?

Yes all of the models FR and down were, the Cupra wasn't. I'm not sure if it was "known" as a facelift model after the same year? (56 reg I believe)

But from the inside there are differences between the pre-facelift Cupra and facelift year (late 2006)

Aux-in socket next to handbrake.
Chunky gearknob with newer styled Cupra flag on.
MP3 Alana radio.
Newer styled Cupra writing and flag on front seats.
Steering wheel has Cupra wirtten on bottom part.
Steering wheel has volume/track buttons for the radio.

That's about it I think!

Not sure if this helps, but this is quite interesting:
