DIEHARD ◊ 2007-12-11 11:24	1986+ if serie II, I think it has orange rearlights, so it is serie II. I do not see the window in the C-pillar and those hubcaps where standard from BX14E -> onwards. Besides it has side window surroundings in the body colour, 16TRI had black window surroundings -- Last edit: 2007-12-11 11:27:21

Difference between série 1 and série 2 is easy to see on the front: 1: edgy orange indicators that don't reach the top of the headlights; 2: softer shaped white glass indicators that join the upper line of the headlights
DIEHARD ◊ 2007-12-12 08:04	DynaMike wrote There has also been a version with a black painted fake third window, I think. This was often done becuase the third window wasn't of very good quality. With to much sun exposure the plastic comes of in tiny bits. Some people then put a black banner over the window. There was also a banner for car without the third window, it could be combined with side striping. This banner was slightly bigger than a real side window...
