Default bumper on my98 cars

Was there a model classic that used the facelift light, bonnet and grille but had the earlier typr bumper of did all the mods come together.

I thought maybe the 98 flat type grille may also mean it had the earlier type bumper?

cheers

98 onwards cars had the earlier bumper, but a different grille, bonnetline etc:



This shows it, but mine also has a MRO splitter, Morettes, smoked indicators and Scoobysport Xenon driving lights.

August '98. AFAIK. Mine has it, but the one I test-drove hadn't.

I've got a late 98 model (December) and it has the new bumper, bonnet, grill, lights and dash.

Before then I think - My MY98 was registered in Jan 98 and it has the white dials. AFAIK, the white dials were the major difference between a 97 and 98, plus of course the 16" wheels.
