There was no difference in reception where I am when I fitted the stubby one.

^^ Mine has it in the rear window and the reception is perfect.  IIRC the cars with factory satnav (even the MY04/5) had a sharkfin for GPS.

........mine is as well.

I got the stubby citroen one and it fits fines and reception is good too. I can still get magic fm (london radio station that does cheesy music but strangely all the cars I have been in has it on their pre-sets) all the way up on the M1 j10.

Whilst we are talking about changes early models (like mine ) came with the 10 speaker setup, ariel in the rear window and silver ash tray cover.

Thats all I can think of for now, anyone know anymore?

Blue tinted glass, 3 reading lamps at the front and a rocker switch to switch the interior sensor / inclination sensor for the alarm off.  Newer models only have one button for the interior sensor

My05 had the aerial in the rear window. It was removed as part of the cost cutting exercise to make the car cheaper to make. A few ££ here and there makes a big difference on high production cars.

Erm, I think you'll find ALL Mk5s have the arial in the rear glass, irrespective of weather they have an additional one on the roof.  Factory fitted SatNag and/or phone prep will definately give you an additional roof aerial - usually a shark fin, but there seems to be no consistency in this.

my 08 came with free leather which was nice
