There has been a long thread on another site with all the variants being covered.
The "D" model number is ivory and tan and the "C" is light grey and dark blue. MK1 has The transistor line up OC44, OC45, OC45, and two variants in the audio stage.
The MK2 has AF117, AF117, AF117, OC71, OC81D, OC81, OC81. and physically smaller audio transformers.
The TR82 is an early example of a set with a cabinet that is made of ABS plastic. I have some parts of a modern TV cabinet that have been slowly chopped up to make many brackets and spacers for all sorts of tasks with the biggest two bits making the amplified speakers for my computer. It was the stiffening ribs from the cabinet floor that made the replacements for the brackets in my TR82. The solvent is xylene for the cement for ABS and the easiest way to get it is to use PCB lacquer but check the warning label to make sure it is the correct type as there are others.
