They are talking UK spec I guess your MY93 must be an import as AFAIK the first UK cars were 1994.

If it's a V plate 1999, then it IS an MY99...

Same as mine

If it was an MY00 it would have these colour coded, so it's an MY99

Just for some people info you CAN get V Reg 1999 MY00 models, just as you can get S Reg 1998 MY99 models.

Basically if you bought a new car in December 1998 it will "probably" be a MY99 etc

If it has colour coded door handles and variable intermitent function on the windscreen wipers it's a 2000, if not its a 99.

Got my dealer to check this out when I bought mine and MY00 models are apparently identified by the 10th letter of the chassis/vin Number being a ‘Y’.
Correct me if I’m wrong but that’s what they told me !!

mine's a V reg and was regitered 12/12/99 but it has colour coded door handles etc and is aMY00 think it depends on when they were registered as Hel has said.

MY00 has variable intermitent function on the windscreen wipers ??

I paid £££ to have colour coded door handles, wing-mirrors, etc.

At least my MY99 doesn't have that dodgy ECU

MY00 also have different wheels to the MY99's
[rack brain mode on] think MY99's are 5 spoke.
MY00's are six spoke.[rack brain mode off]

Changes MY99>MY00

Wheels. (6 spoke vs 5 spoke)
Rear seat belts support child seat belts (pull em fully out, they will retract and not be able to be pulled out until they are fully retracted to normal position)
Colour coded mirrors, colour coded handles (skirts/rear bumper mouldings still black as standard)
Variable speed intermittant wash wipe (collar on right hand stalk controls this)
Silver metallic finish on the centre console

That's it.

Cheers,
Nick.
(former MY00 owner and proud )
