Default EL XR8 Series 1 vs Series 2

Can anyone tell me the difference between the two XR8's ?

How to identify a series 1 from a series 2 and build dates ?

Also, a guess as to their current values would be appreciated.

Thanks

The most obvious difference is that the EL update has the 185kW Windsor with the 'Explorer' manifold. I'm sure someone will be able to drag up some pics to show you the difference between the two. Having a guess at their current vales, I'd say about 13-14K. A bit more for an update model.
