Again and again there are misunderstandings when people ask about the model year or the year of manufacture of a P1800.

The model year defines the time period in which a certain model was produced. During the company holidays in July, the production lines were changed over, technical changes or changes in the sense of model maintenance. From August onwards the vehicles were then assigned to a new model year.

The model year is identical with the calendar year.

As an example: A vehicle that rolled off the production line in September 1968 belongs to model year 1969, but to model year 1968.

The specification of the model year allows specialists to specify the description of a vehicle.
