Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Other than size of V1, I don't think technology has changed much in last two years.
Leading evidence: 'Replace much in last two years' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Replace have they gotten smaller or larger' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.

If they've changed, have they gotten smaller or larger?
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Get the serial number of the old V1 and than go to the V1 web site, it will tell you what the cost would be to get the latest technology. Other than size of V1, I don't think technology has changed much in last two years.
Yes, they have different versions of software. You can put the serial # into the V1 site and it will tell ya what software it has. Then as mo said, you can find out the cost of the upgrade.
Do you mean the V1 has changed in size? I think I got mine in 1999 or 2000. If they've changed, have they gotten smaller or larger?
I was actually thinking of getting a 2nd one so I could leave it in my Boxster (when it arrives) so I wouldn't have to move it from car to car.

Changed thickness. Maybe "size" that I stated is misleading. I don't know exactly, but think in ~2000, the newer V1's are about 3/8" thinner with same width and length as the older V1's. Hope that helps clarify.
Make sure it's not "hot" as if it is a stolen unit I don't think they will upgrade it. If it is legit, they have a very good upgrade system. I bought one several years ago and have had it "upgraded" which amounts to getting a brand new unit for a discounted price. Love the V1, couldn't drive with out it!!

I understand that the radar technology is basically the same on the current units as on the older models but that the laser technology may be upgraded.
As they say, a picture's worth a 1000 words. Based on your photo, mine is definitely the newer smaller design, at least base on the **** itself.
