Hi all, I have a p38 and on the slam panel it has a badge/plaque that says "Land Rover Special Vehicles, Solihull West Midlands" It also has a contract no. stamped on it and the date of first registration. Now on the logbook it says its a Range Rover Efi.... Its a p38 Diesel though...!!!? So that made me confused, I have been on the parts websites online and the reg (N388 KKH) of the car comes back as a rover 75 on one site, Then unknown on another, Some insurance sites dont recognise it either, So i phoned dvla and they confirmed the reg as a blue p38 diesel. "correct"!! Also dvla website only recognises it as a rover not a land rover... Its really weird... Any ideas or suggestions anybody?? Thanks alot. Nick. Also logbook says date of first reg 01-11-95 Manufacture date "unknown".......?? RANGE ROVER EFI!!!!!!!!!! HELP!!!!
 
you could try getting one of them test check services done. its only about 3 quid and it should tell you about its history. or try ringing the historical dept at landrover, not sure of address. you will need the vin number.

i cant see anyone rining it with a rover 75!!

never tried this but if you go to a main dealer and give them the details off the special plate they can look it up.
