I've NEVER seen this before, and I thought I had seen them all before. What is this????

I'm not sure it's a special edition at all. :think:

 

[Tim (Scotland)]

All kinds of wrong, thats what it is.

 

[lrscott]

Thats not a special edition. Kind of looks like a holland and holland but in red though... I do like the way they did the center console.

 

[rhino_ed]

Yea, that's short bus special edition. Looks like a paint gun blew up on it in all the wrong places (including the wheels) and the seats got hacked back together. Anyone else notice the forward lean? At least they left the air-suspension for some newb to ask how to fix. Typical "sell your problems away"

What's the knob for on the dash?

 

[Three Phase]

I think it looks pretty good, and has low miles to boot. A much much better customization job than some of the others I have seen here lately!

The wood color is the same as a 30th Anniversary edition, I don't think they came in red though. Shame as they had a cool wimbeldon green color.

 

[SteveG]

I agree, I dont think it looks good. However, I think it might be from the factory. Those seats are the ones found in the Westminster edition, only they are tan...my point is they are factory seats that I have never seen. Also, the red leather panels under the steering column and glovebox and on the door panels definatly look factory. The wood may have been cobbled off a 30th anniversary by the factory, because they had some left?

I know that LR produced a special editon with that red color scheme, it had a lightstone interior with red piping and red carpets. IMO this is the best color combination ever produced...but this to me looks like it could be for real.

 

[kmagnuss]

There's zero chance of that coming from the factory. The red leather on the steering wheel doesn't come close to matching the 'orange' wood on the dash. No way. That's a hip-hop wannabe job with no sense of matching. Just didn't spring for the lambo doors and 22's.

Going to teach you a south african word...that truck looks KAK.and dont ask what it means,i dont want to banned from the forum!

 

[TehPriest]

Kak is actually Welsh and as Welsh (the language of Wales, United Kindom) is the oldest living language it probably got imported down to you with our miners :lol: It caan't be Kak though, Kak is brown :lol:

If its a fake, how did they manage to get TAN wistminster (spelling) seats? those are definatly LR seats, and they only came in black.

The Seats are "Oxford Leather" which were a Option available on HSE's and various other Models not just Westminsters, and was also available in various colours.

[Roverrad95]

Yes, that is factory. The wheels were not, as the car came with standard hurricanes, but it is an Autobiography. Land Rover brought some here, all were Red with ran and red carpet, red piping.

It was never badged as an Autobio, but that is what the autobio in Europe was. It is considered a Special Edition.

 

[kmagnuss]

It sure doesn't look red to me. Looks more like a metallic reddish copper.

I got a dollar that says if you look close enough you'll find some overspray. Who lives close enough to go check it out?

I'm pretty sure those seats are the optional Oxford leather ones that were available from the factory (about £2000).

Also it wouldn't surprise me if that was an Autobiography - a look on the slam panel would confirm that. When looking for our current RR I came across a hideous factory set up - 2 tone blue interior, including 2 tone steering wheel, seats, dash and door panels. Exterior was also 2 tone IIRC it was silver over blue.

 

[lrscott]

Didn't they only make the autobiography in 1999 for the p38?
