you don't have an E model mate unless the 9n3's base spec is higher

I have the same spec and mine is marked "S" model.

[LowPoloCo.]

mine is entry level as entry level can be! 1.2E 55bhp, and its colour coded? didnt do that myself, and the previous owner didnt appear to be someone who would pay to get that done,

other than that, it has manual windows, heated mirrors, and had a tape player

so whats the top model E,S,TWIST and is there any other models ?

[carmadaaron]

E,S,SE,TWIST,SPORT,GT

[david burton]

Sport defines the trim level too, I believe

[Chris SDI]

E,S,SE,TWIST,SPORT,GT

so is that the order of e being bottom to gt being top ??

and whats diffence ?

[david burton]

sport has the alloy wheels (15") sports suspension and cd changer as standard I think (if the other don't?)

not sure on the GT - 16" wheels, colour coded bump strips perhaps?

From parkers

E has ABS with electronic brakeforce distribution, driver and front passenger airbags, height and reach-adjustable steering wheel, electro-mechanical power-assisted steering, radio/CD player with four speakers, central locking, electronic engine immobiliser, five three-point seatbelts and ISOFIX child seat points.

S adds 'Climatic' semi-automatic air conditioning, 14-inch alloy wheels, front fog lights, front electric windows, electrically heated and adjustable door mirrors, body-coloured door mirrors and door handles and split folding rear seat.

SE gets driver and front seat passenger height adjustment, driver and front seat passenger under seat drawer, remote central locking with alarm, front seat back storage pockets, radio/CD player with 8 speakers and 12V socket in luggage compartment.

Top-spec Sport gains 15-inch alloy wheels, front fog lights, chrome trimmed radiator grille surround, front sports seats, leather-trimmed steering wheel, gearknob and handbrake grip, multifunction computer and sports suspension.

I think that's for the new one though - I don't have a chrome grill surround!

[mjmills]

I think that is the new one, the E only gained 5 3 point seat belts recently, i thought it was a 9N3 thing? certainly my 03 9n has 4 3 point, and 1 2 point in the rear middle.

they change the specs as the car gets older too, plus people may have added optional extras!
