You are correct 'J', there are different fuel filler flaps.

I have not detailed the flap on my illustration above, but body castings classed as Mk1 have a flap slightly squarer and higher up the rear wing so is a bit further away from the bumper.

Mk1 bodies have the larger door locks as detailed above.

Thanks Ghosty,
Thats great, I thought there was a slight difference in the position then noticed the cast lines are more prominent. I will have to check my others now when I find them.
Cheers J
