If it's got satnav and telephone, where is the aerial? On the pre my04 it should be on the rear left wing. Later cars have it on the boot.

Nice colour combo and one i was after originally (colour combo) but bear in mind that the V8 on the front wings has been added by an owner and this is an early 2002 car as the gear lever has the 2 screws either side of the Reverse switch and as Benny stated the car cant have a phone as its got no ariel.
It will also have the plastic screen and older spec but it looks really nice for someone.
I have noted though that people looking for a spyder are all looking for the later 2004 spec and they use the rear Glass screen as an reference point.Its good to see that people are researching these cars properly.
I was once told the upgrades were different steering rack,suspension,stability program,gearbox,electronics,rear screen and a 20% more rigid chassis and a few other things i cant remember now.
I drove a 2002 and scuttle shake was noticably more prominent. but other than that it was just the rear screen that was obvious. I guess the changes are subtle but were needed.

BennyD My 05 Spyder has a stubby ariel in the middle of the boot about 6 inches long.
