The last two.
For the Grace, should the 1997 models also be changed?
There is also a 1998 model with the AH code like the older ones, so it is not very clear where the model changes
For the Besta, 1998+ models seem the Pregio made for south-America
But wasn't the model change in 1995 then?
cf https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kia_Pregio
Maybe some 1995-1997 models should be checked manually
Some for the few ones without model year.
And I find weird that all have TP chassis code, there may be an error there too
Currently we have the Lancia Lybra sedan listed as 1999+ and the SW as 2000+. As they were both sold since September 1999, both should be listed as 2000+. So could you please change all the sedans listed as 1999 to 2000? Thanks in advance. 
Strangely the English Wikipedia page gives 1998 as start of production, but indeed in the sales figures seeing the low volume of 1999 compared to 2000 & 2001 it looks like it was first sold at the end of 1999.
By checking randomly those listed as 2000, I see one from an earlier date: https://www.imcdb.org/vehicle.php?id=1400908
funny that it was listed as 2000 and most of the others as 1999
I'll wait a little before changing all 1999 to 2000 in case someone has additional input.

That one is surely a pre-production, with 832 serial number, maybe would be better to set it again as 1999 specifying that is a pre-series 
probably I listed that one as 2000 before Alex's comment, or based on plate date.
Anyway, the Lybra was introduced in March 1999 (sedan and wagon), with pre-production likely starting around the same period, and first price list is dated September 1999 for both. Sales to the public begun that month. For sure normal production didn't start in 1998, possibly the fact that the car had quite a long gestation and prototypes in definitive form were shown in late 1998 created some confusion.

Why Convertible Vignale since we can have the more appropriate -and correct- Convertibile Vignale http://www.imcdb.org/search.php?resultsStyle=asList&sortBy=0&make=Lancia&model=F- lavia+Convertible -we can keep any extra info as is (1.8, hardtops etc)

In a similar note why are the Baur 02'a called Targa? That was of course Porsche's thing... http://www.imcdb.org/search.php?resultsStyle=asList&sortBy=0&make=BMW&model=2002- +Targa
Baur/BMW documentation calls them Cabrio or Cabriolet
Thank you for listening
