so only difference between old and early new shape is steering wheel shape and some external differences on the bodywork?

Bobby, if you are interested in doing a comparison between the J11A & J11B these attachments might help you. The first is a copy from Sandgrounder and the other a new UK version. Get a Jug of Beer and have a read over the weekend as a comparison like for like takes time but you begin to then understand that there are differences - Enjoy ! I hope this helps you Dave 😉

Just to update. Mate has a 2018 Tekna so took a drive over to see his in detail.
Boot does look awful small, is that 430 litres to the "top" floor or to the lower position? My Civic hatch has 477 litres and the Civic does look a good bit bigger.
It has keyless entry - I was hoping to avoid a car with this due to the increase in "relay" thefts of keyless entry cars.
ICE - once you realise that there is a new one available with lots of extra toys, you then feel disappointed that this car will have the old unit wthout these!

I am probably doing what I often do and over-research cars as I still genuinely love the look of the QQ especially in vivid blue. Its stunning. But at this stage I think I will put my new car search on hold for a while. Need to rethink what I definitely want in a car and what I can live without!

Another update - local dealer had a vivid blue Tekna automatic. Planned to go and see it today.
Mate calls me to say his hire car had been delivered - a vivid blue Tekna (but manual). So had a good look around it and decided that if I could reach a deal, I was buying today.
Went to dealer - car got sold this morning!

Grrr!!

Interestingly, every one of the alloys was badly scraped and gouged. Salesman said they were fixing them before the buyer took delivery of the car.

Back to drawing board!
