    GU Y61 Is it a GU7 or a GU8

    I'm not sure there's any difference between the two, but my GU is a Nov 11 build and Jan 12 compliance. Is it a GU7 or an 8, and is there a difference?

    If you have a rear difflock and VDS(stability control) as standard itsa GU8 otherwise it will be GU7

    Thanks Nisshead that tells me there is a difference - maybe I bought a month or two early. I hope it didn't have a rear diff lock, I paid ARB to put one in LOL

    Yeah there were only 2 main changes
    rear locker
    VDS

    and a couple of cosmetic ones
    chrome ring around the gauges in the instrument cluster
    there is no aerial at the front anymore...they moved it to a rear side window.

    Looks like you might have bought a month early

    Mines Dec'11 build and Feb '12 compliance plate
