Wouldn't worry about it, probably some the chav before him changed the alloys and lights, then want to sell so just bought some cheap from somewhere to make it look half decent

Yes, that is a pre-facelift one. Facelift looks like this, but the SXI will have the wheels posted on the last page:
I was thinking the same about the front end not lining up before reading any of the replies in here. I wouldn't go for it personally - there will be more out there that are as they should be.

It definitely looks a lot better  You'll pay a bit more for a facelift one though with it being a bit newer.
I should probably mention that an SXI also wouldn't have the mirrors in that picture I posted as they only came on the facelift SRi.

would you be able to put facelift bumpers on a non facelift or is it too much work?

Quite a few pre face SRi's had the mirrors aswell Dave.
Yes you can swap over the facelift bumpers, front one is a straight swap, the rear one, you have to change the arch peices that meet the sideskirts too, still easy.
Can also swap the facelift headlights too.
