Does anyone know why there are two different styles of window trim on the 100hp Pandas? It's not a major difference but it just seems strange why there should be two styles on cars of the same age

Both are on 57 plate 100hp Pandas

Because Fiat build their cars with whatever they happen to have lying around in the factory that day.

I guess they found a cheaper supplier of window trims for 100HPs so bought those instead of the other, more expensive version. Just because both cars are 57 plates doesn't mean that both were actually built particularly close to each other, there could be more than 6 months in it.
 
My (new bought) Stilo MW (dynamic JTD) had painted doorhandles on one side (as it should have) and plain black ones on the other side.
Took me 3 weeks before I noticed it and another three weeks for the dealer to replace them. Must be a messy factory;)
