Normally special editions are at run out or when sales are waning.
This arrived in my email a few minutes ago - "A LIMITED EDITION TO CELEBRATE Marking the start of our 75th Anniversary celebrations in 2023, the highly collectable Defender 75th Limited Edition combines unique heritage detailing with cutting-edge technology." I think "unique heritage detailing" is pushing it a bit - which bits of detail, exactly!!!!! Don`t drive faster than your angel can fly! |

Land Rover have regularly issued special editions in connection with significant milestones or events (50th anniversary, Tomb Raider, G4, etc). I agree about the 'unique heritage detailing' though - that just seems to consist of a paint colour. Darren

Have they confirmed that the colour is paint and not just a lazy wrap over a black vehicle...?

I think all they've said is that it's a paint colour, i.e. Grasmere Green. Interpret that as you will

£86k for the 90 and £90k for the 110. Basically it’s an HSE with some badges and a change of colour.
Already got my badge made and on the 110  Click image to enlarge 24MY 90 D250 HSE, Tasman Blue |

Amazing….
They can supply the ‘“special editions” Meanwhile thousands of customers waiting months for their “normal” builds. Simply cashing in as ever.

Is this your vehicle J77? That looks like a British number plate but I thought UK supplied ones didn’t have that coloured square on the side, my one hasn’t anyway.
EDIT - just realised the dealer specced mine with the no cost option of ‘panoramic side windows’ which deletes the green squares. A good choice imo. Last edited by Gravygraham on 27th Oct 2022 6:10pm. Edited 2 times in total |
