T350C - 2004 Improvements?

[Skipe]

Can anyone tell me what other updates were made to the late 2004 cars onwards? Luggage covers, sunvisors, boot finger recess and glovebox improvements seem to be mentioned on some ad's I've seen?

I'm keen on two cars at the moment one's a 53 (with a rebuild) and the other's an 55 plate - is there a huge everyday difference with these 2004 improvements???

You have pretty much listed the visible differences- minor, but nice to have. Air-con was included too, for a short time. But, Smelly's quality drive was real and the unseen differences were real (though not perfect). Unless you know something I don't, I'd have the '55' car...

If you're looking at Targas then the targa panel catches were changed in early 2004.

The later the better but i've got a late 04 and some of the supposed engine upgrades were not to be found in my car, luck of the draw i feel.

Mine's a 53 and has the sunvisors, boot recess and luggage cover. Glovebox lid is still dodgy, though...

The updates were from around Jan '04.

Mine was built in March '04 & has the various trim upgrades & there were various less obvious mods, like a vent up towards the oil tank on the underside, whereas 2003 models had a flat tray.

Mine is an August 03 has, Sun visors, glove box with finger resess, with a good lid, and boot cover... plus aircon, all fitted as standard??

Interesting! Does it also have a recess in bodywork for fingers to get under the hatch glass? An early one I saw didn't?

[RJelley]

Yes has the finger resess also on the boot...
