Wheel arch clips used to come off too easily, they changed the parts to stop this. This affected early cars. Also of course without stop/start etc. your resale may not be so good in a few years. Also, they redesigned the bonnet scoop (opened it up) on later cars to aid cooling.

Personally, I'd avoid early builds, but I'm sure there are many happy owners and ex-owners.
