Most likely. Does it have the standar silver alloys or are they a darker shadow chrome colour? Are the centre of the seats a grey mesh or black alcantara? There are some models that were just late registered, and are not actually facelifted.

It has slightly darker wheels and the alcantara on the seats. Also has an aux and a few other connections under the arm rest

Its been a good 2-3 months, and ive been doubtful about my job, then I got told they were doing away with my position and I was being made redundant. 2 days later I handed in my notice and got a new job. I now quite like the new job, so im happy to go back to a decent car. Even though the Passat is a bit dull, ive tinkered with alot of bits and its been good fun. That half the enjoyment with owning a car, doing little bits to it yourself! Im saying just now that if I get a mk2, I wont be doing much to it, because we are looking to sell our flat and get a house this year. Maybe rem inserts, ebay tip and I quite fancy lowering it on eibachs. We'll see
