The model number will tell you.

 

The model numbers look like ANH10, or similar.

Your auction sheet should have it listed on there.

If your model has a 15 in it, it is 4WD, eg. ANH15.

hiya @Rojie how do you find your model number? is it in the manual or on the physical car like the doorcards etc?

First, try your auction sheet.

Second, try your door frames; A post, but probably B post.

Or engine bay somewhere !

 

The 'plate' should give you the model number, and lots of other stuff.

Do you know your trim level ? It was a MZG wasn't it.

Models numbers change with engine size and drive system.

Is yours Gen 1 or 2. I think it was 1 from memory.

If it has the 3 litre it is Gen 1.

@Rojie yes its a 3L gen 1 MZG. does this change anything?

 

No. Do you have the auction sheet ?

 

The model number is clearly visible in the middle of the second row.

@Rojie i assume it Raeem gave it with the paperwork, ill go have a look now

easiest and quickest would be to lay under the vehicle at the rear, if you have 4wheel drive it should have a diff and propshaft, the front wheel drive version just have a normal solid axle, if you had the 2,4 it would be easier to see by looking at the gearbox from under the bonnet, there you can easily see a propshaft or not depending on which one you have, hope that helps
