Hey guys.
Long time user but new to the whole 380 scene.
Was just wondering what the difference were between a series 1 right upto the series 3 generally.
Yes i have tried the search function extensively but after 8 pages of looking, still cant find what i'm after.
Much appreciated.

lol your guess would be as good as mine.

I think that basically through out the range,the interiors stayed the same,there are model differences with guage surrounds,but generallt,what may have been std in earlier models,may have become an option later.

These include things like the sunroof,sat nav, bluetooth.

Taillights were the only real body change,with the series 3 (i think ) VRX going back to having the stock lights instead of the clear ones.
m sure many others will jump in and point out the subtle differences that i haven't noticed.

Series 2 VRX has leather seats which I think is the pick of the bunch. Series 3 I believe they went back to cloth seats & the stock looking tail lights, big wing & the front lower grill insert.

I might be biased but I'd go a series 2 for looks & leather.

The only VRX motors that were LPG compatible were the Series3.

generally the series 2 ones the only major difference across the board was a price chop, oh and the s2 onwards for all cars got the second constant power outlet in the centre console that was an option on series ones that ive never seen fitted to a series one- i fitted it with a part out of 380ftws hail damaged car .
others above have already commented on leather and dials. im sure there are a few more bits like the above. ill get back to you when i remember!

if you really want a comparison,look at whites 380 as his is a series 3 and braedz vrx as his is a series 1 ,i think,mine is a GT but,an optioned up VRX is a GT except for the chrome strip down the side.

Again, i am only basing it on the cars i have seen on here...have you looked at the post your ride in the 380 section...good examples are there...

Had a look at a series 2 VRX today with leather. The seats look more hugging than S1 seats. Is this the case or are they the same just being leather?
