Has there been changes made to the 2.0 version of the car? Absolutely.
Has there been "very little is left untouched from the original 22"? That's highly exaggerated.
The reality is that many if not most owners have kept up with the running changes that have been made for the car, or upgraded items themselves with aftermarket parts, that many people are going to find the major changes in suspension geometry the only changes necessary.
I don't understand how you can say that the "shocks look superb," since they're visually essentially the same as the old shocks. Other than the bleeder caps, that most people changed out a long time ago (or others find unnecessary), and the new shock shaft coating, they look exactly the same as the original shocks. Otherwise, the major change in the shocks was the internals: pistons, spacers, and x-rings - but many owners have previously addressed these on their own as well.
Yes, the chassis has been milled in the servo area to lower it a millimeter or so - but let's not get carried away suggesting major changes have been made over the entire vehicle as this is far from the truth.
