I picked up my car from Middlehurst today. They assured me it was a 2010 spec one. Here are pics of the dials:

To be honest they don't look noticeably different to the 2009 model so I'm not sure even if it is a 2010 car!

They look the same as my 09!

There must be a definitive way of identifying the model year either from chassis number or something

Zed Ed · 8th March 2010, 07:24 PM

why bother

all the same where it matters

Just nice to know when you're buying one new this year

EvolutionVI · 8th March 2010, 07:55 PM

In germany you can get the 2010 models from april on.....so why should they be available on UK now.....can´t see a difference to my early 09 non satnav model in these speedo pictures...

MNK · 8th March 2010, 08:00 PM

Apparently they started being built end of 2009 in Japan so the models being delivered to customers in the UK now are 2010 spec

Changes to the 2010 Nissan GT-R European Spec (EU) - The Unofficial BMW M5 Messageboard (m5board.com)

Lists the details of the spec changes. Seems that the specV diffuser, dials, headrest, and logos are the only visible changes, but all very subtle. Your first pic looks to be gunmetal around the rev counter digits.

It wont make a jot of difference to the way it drives, resale value or more importantly ownership experience. Enjoy the car man.

LAWMARCO · 9th March 2010, 01:49 PM

do UK cars have rear fogs? if so, these SHOULD now be LEDs

LAWMARCO · 9th March 2010, 01:50 PM

the new car is EU5 emissions compliant - should say this on the car documents

ricksterb · 9th March 2010, 04:31 PM

Easy to check on your V5 by looking at the CO2 emissions. It should be 298 g/km for pre MY2010 cars, 295 g/km for the new ones.

Rich 2010GTR · 9th March 2010, 05:48 PM

I hope you are wrong, I have just checked mine which was said to be a 2010MY and my V5 has a CO2 of 298 G/KG.
Turn on worried mode!

beaver · 9th March 2010, 05:52 PM

I doubt Nissan would bother to make the change at DVLA or wherever to show 3kg difference, as long as your "cogs" on the speedo and rev counter are gunmetal you've got a MY2010.

I think.
