Dont think facelift has a lot of difference unless you are that into cars like on here.
I'm looking to buy and after reading the stuff about the exhaust liners, facelift means a lot to me.

Not if it's been K04'd. Manifolds would have been changed/repaired

I'd give you £7000 for it. I'm looking for one at the moment (have been for a while) but I really want a facelift with much lower miles.

Even though I know that the mileage isn't really that important if it's been looked after, and that the pre-facelift will be fine now it's had the manifolds done etc, but the problem is when I come to sell it I'd have the same problems with people wanting facelift with less miles etc.

Ultimately I backed out of buying a pre-facelift K04 Avant because of the lack of traction control and lack of side airbags. Wife was just not happy with the lack of these safety features on a performance car. I regret it every day :boohoo:

The one I nearly bought did not unfortunately. Would have been enough to swing the deal!

If you are talking about Mik's old car which I now own it does have front side airbags in the seats.
