when i was looking for a saxo i found a perfect 1 only problem was had a mk2 front end so i actually went about looking how much it will cost for a mk1 conversion - ended up to much so i bought a standard mk1
mk1 looks slightly older but more meaner and aggresive
mk2 looks all curvy and girly

Prefer the squarer headlights, and the grill seperate from the bonnet.

mk1's are just dated.
mk2's are the newer better version.
