My09 / my10

[kevin118]

Stupid question. What drives the Manufacture Year numbering? I gather there are only small changes to the configuration for MY10 (presuming it is a configuration management thing). Is every car on the way here MY10, now?

Should I care with a prospective purchase?

I don't know what the differences are but our July 09 build date 118 TSI is a MY10 apparently. So yes, anything you order now will be MY10.

When I asked my dealer they said the only difference between MY09 and MY10 is the location of the tie down points in the boot...

New colours would be nice.

New colours would be good but I don't know when or if colour choice would be refreshed. A dealer hinted to me a while ago that Shark Blue may be on its way out as an option as they weren't selling well. I said I quite liked it (which seemed to openly surprise them). I would choose the mid blue that the polo comes in myself if I could, but hey ...

Black was the only colour my wife liked. Have a look on vw's uk site. There are solid res and blues, and even a green.

My new 118TSI is Shark Blue but two dealers I talked to both said the same thing, that it wasn't popular. Under light it's quite an interesting colour, sometimes looks turquoise.

The colour range is ordinary though, I felt I chose the best of a bad bunch.

MY10 came in in mid June.

Changes are oil temperature reading in MFD and different hooks in the boot.

Mine has the oil temperature reading so definitely MY10. Thanks.

The VIN number will let you know for sure. Go to about the 9th or 10th character. There will either be a 9 for the MY 09 or an A for MY 10. You will see how many people try and pass their car off as the newer model on the car sites, the VIN number gives them away!
