If you're interested, over here we also got N/A 2.0 20v 143hp and a N/A 2.5 10v 140hp versions of the engine (BTW what they call the 2.4l we called 2.5l). All could be had as manual or auto.

I think I'm not going to get into the overseas ones cuz then I have to cover all the 10valve ones also along with the smaller motors and it gets about 100x more complicated......

Those sneaky swedes, it just kills me that the GLT stands for Grande Luxe Tease up till 97.

Somewhere along the line I think the GLT (light pressure turbo) was offered in a manual. I could be wrong...

Somewhere along the line I think the GLT (light pressure turbo) was offered in a manual. I could be wrong...Nobody has yet to have seen a definite 5speed 97 GLT. Only the 97 GLT's were LPT. Earlier GLT's were available with manuals, but not 97's as far as I know.

Maybe Australian markets are different yet again, but I've always thought that '93 got older style bumper, headlight and tail lights. '94 got new stype buper, headlight but still retailed the older style tail lights on sedan, which have amber turn signal lens and 2 piece on the trunk lid. From '95 the new sedan tail lights with clear turn signal lens and one-piece on the trunk lid were introduced.

I also remember that '93 has old style fog lights / demister / aerial / hazard switches on the dash, similar to 700 series except wider, then '94 or '95 (I THINK '95) the switches were redesigned to the more ergonomic style.
