older style is squarer above the speedo binnacle,
late spec is a curved shape above.

its not really the reg that determines wheather it should or shouldn't have the facelifted bits, its the build date.
not sure exactly when the newer style bits were fitted though.

but i've seen K plate cars without some of the facelifted bits.




mine has them all

still a shonky old taxi though!

the face lift spec dash has the handle of the glove box on the right hand side. On the older spec models to the right of the steering wheel on the lower part there is what looks like a grill, while the newer spec has a small odds and sods box.

Jake, I have a K plate Saph and it looks like a couple of vacuum hoses from mine aren't original. Any chance you could post a few close up pics of the hoses from your manifold so I can compare with the pics below. Its the blue pipes that i don't think are right.

Cheers
Steve

Late spec dash: (Not that you can really see it, behind the steering wheel)
