There have been a fair few SD1`s with an international flavour recently on ebay...most interesting to see the subtle differences between the models sent to various countries...I don`t normally think the S1 bonnet/ grille is as good as a S2, but that looks really nice...

Love the bumpers Very Happy

hate to see a S1 with a S2 front skirt. it just looks drab where the bumpers end and the shape is there to take the S2 bumpers.
I would have to make some end caps up that went all the way to the back to cover it Very Happy

Yup, the series 2 front spoiler looks wrong with series 1 bumpers.

Strangely, the car has a series 2 tailgate!

And what are those two control knobs on the dash next to the
steering wheel? Door mirror controls? I thought the door mirror
controls where the same across all models?

Yeah i have always thought the series2 skirts look wrong on a series1 but that does look good Smile

Wonder what made them fit the series2 tailgate.

That switch does look like a mirror switch Confused

Could be airconditioning me thinks? Have seen aftermarket ones like that.
