Default Vdp

Hi,
I am once again on the quest for an X308 VDP. I thought I saw a buyer's guide a long time ago on this site, but now I see a link to a British site. Although informative, we have different engines and who knows what else may be different on US models. I understand nikasil is most likely not an issue if a car has survived this long, but I am trying to find the most reliable model years. I assume I would have the best luck reliability wise with a 2003 vdp. Is there any difference between a 2002 and a 2003? How about 2001s?
Thank you!

All those are the same with the exceptions of different options.

For some reason I thought there was a new transmission at some point. But thanks for clearing that up!

It's an excellent checklist for assessing a potential purchase.
