Hi all, Im new here but have been a long time lurker. Some great advise and people on here so hopefully I will be able to learn even more now I have joined and can ask questions.
I have just taken the plunge and purchased a Range Rover. It’s a near as mint & unchanged from factory (not even a 2000 light upgrade) 1997 Niagra Grey 4.6 HSE with the light stone (cream) leather & black piping and HK Stereo system. It has done 89000 miles, FSH and has been religiously looked after (couldn't find as much as a scratch to knock the dealer down on price). I just hope the £2999 I have paid was not too much. The prices are all over the place right now.....
Anyway as the title states, what’s special about a Limited Edition????
The reason I ask is that on the database, my reg is logged as a 1997 4.6 LTD Edit, not simply a HSE?
Now as far as I am aware LTD Edit would mean Limited Edition. But what is so special about it or is there nothing at all. But then if that’s the case, why did they even create this Limited Edition?????
It’s badged as a HSE on the tailgate and as far as I can see there is no reference on the car to a Limited Edition????
Is this common? Sorry if this is a typical newbie question.......
I have not seen many Niagra Grey P38's about, maybe that is the limited factor?
The leather seats also have seven vertical seams on the seat bottoms and seven vertical and two horizontal seams on the seat backs as per 1998 spec, maybe they were fitted earlier as part of the Limited Edition?? Just ideas……..
