GWtaylor 8 1 Cars Posted July 20, 2015 My friend has a 205 gti but the heater controls are not like the traditional turn knobs it's a up and down motion is this classed as the phase 1????? Also where trying to find out other differences between the really early models and the later models. Was there much else changed between the 2 such as she'll, suspension, engine BHP, Thanks in advanced We're asking as if the later phases had better suspension ect we'd like to upgrade to that! And can the interior dash be swapped over and who's done it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
welshpug 1,647 Posted July 20, 2015 depends exactly on year, there was no known change in suspension or brakes at all. dashboard should be left well alone if intact, phase1 cars can fetch very good money if they are in good nick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
