On facelift, CDX had sunroof, CD multichanger and heated front seats  over CD.  Leather was option of CD and CDX.

Sunblind was standard in Elite but was discontinued for 02 plate onwards.

devalued further edwardmickey.... ;D

1999 is mini facelift.

Your MV6 Bose would have been an optional extra

Sports leather is a (common) option.
Heated mirrors std across range
CCRT700 std on 1999 MV6, CDX and Elite. Bose is option on MV6
Carin is option
Most of bodykit was option
The (rather unreliable) 17" Irmscher wheels std on MV6 only.

For exactly that reason they are unrelaible, they are very soft and buckle easily.

Look great though!

Anyone fart near them, they will buckle.  Its not just potholes (often unseen/unavoidable, but I've buckled one with a big understeer moment.

Anyone want any new MV6 wheels, 2 weeks ago, Irmscher had 3 left, then thats it. No more production runs. £275 a pop as well.

PaulM is selling some, not sure if he's put them back on and selling his facelift ones now though?
