    Hi,
    My car is a 306 1997 model, is there an easy way to tell whether its
    the Mark 1 or the Mark 2? (I believe this was the year there was a
    slight body shape change)
    TIA

    The easiest way is the Mark 2 has hydraulic struts for the bonnet. The
    Mark 1 has a rod.

    The changeover date from Phase I to Phase II was April 1997.

    There are many changes (not all obvious), some of are:

    Different headlights: Phase II and III are one unit; Phase I has a
    separate indicator.

    Different rear-light clusters: Phase I has a 'corner' shape.

    Different grille: Phase II and III have a smooth rather that slatted
    grille, and newer badge style

    Different dashboard layouts too, the most obvious being the odometer:
    Phase Is are mechanical; II and III have digital.

    Several other changes too.
