wood glue Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 I've now driven a 313 57 plate and a 56 I assume post facelift (it was registered in jan 07 and had LED's at the back) but my actual price range is 04/05 cars which I assume is going to have the old interior. I've seen a lot of talk and comments about the upgrading of the interior but I'm wondering what people actually mean by that. Is it just little things like the feel of the controls and buttons or the quality of the plastics or something more serious? Am I going to really notice the difference when I finally get in a prefacelift car do you think? Also I've just finally gotten the wifely sign off so if anyone has a sunset GT (with black not yuck orange interior) with less than 30k miles on the clock and wants under 13k for it call me up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 i have the prefacelift and its not bad, yes the facelift has little silver enhancements and a few things are moved to more logical places, but its not a massive difference. the quality is better in post 06 but for me personlly it wasn't something i was going to miss.

jerry3167 Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 I am hopefully changing to the Facelift interior bits very soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richt Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 The interior did make a differance for me. Also, make sure that you test drive an older car as it has a heavier clutch. Especially if your a bit of a weakling like me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anubis Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 It's not worth thousands more - go for the general quality of the vehicle. I have been in both the pre and post facelift models and touched both quality of interiors side by side - its only fractionally better in the newer models tbh. I went with the pre facelift and don't feel at all let down. If you want an awesome interior, go for an Audi - the zed is definently aimed as pure driving rather than comfort nice surroundings, yet is still easy to live with.
