You guys have probably been asked this a thousand times but what does the MY99 etc stand for?

 

MY is for Model Year . 99 being the actual year.

BTTT

Cue question three?

 

Back to the top!!! (of the page

 

What defines Model Year?

The year it was sold/registered or the 'plate' year it is on?

e.g My VR6 is a Dec 94 so on an M plate. Some people say that makes it a MY95, I say a MY94. Which is correct?

MY is defined by the year of manufacture mainly

Main groups are MY93 > MY96, then facelift MY97 > MY98, another facelift MY99 > MY00, Fugly MY01 > MY02 etc etc...

 

Main groups are MY93 > MY96, then facelift MY97 > MY98, another 1 facelift MY99 > MY00, Fugly MY01 > MY02 etc etc...

MY93-MY96 - Yup, know what these are
MY97-MY98 - Yup, know what these are
MY99-MY00 - ??????????????????????? Please explain
MY01 Onwards - Yup, know what these are

 

MY99-MY00 4 pot front brakes, new front bumper, large rear spoiler as standard,phase 2 engine with 215bhp (218ps)were the main points for there years.

MY comes out in october so you could for example get an MY99 from October 1998 BUT some of the MY98 spec cars may have been still available to register so its not always conclusive .

Andy is spot on with the my98 to my99 changes

You forgot new front grille

I wouldn't call the MY99 spoiler large either 'Larger' maybe

 

Yeh but the pre my99 cars had the low level boot huging thing so any thing has got to be large compaired to them

Andy

 

ah yes the 'ironing board' spoiler saw plenty of those in dublin last week, all must have been earlier models then

 

Anyone got examples of these differences? Pics I mean.

 

Hope no-one minds me borrowing the pics

Mine is the second one

MY93 > MY96


MY97 > MY98


MY99 > MY00


MY01 > MY02


MY03
