How can I confirm that my 90 is a Heritage model?

I recently took my Defender 90 for some work at my local Land Rover specialist. In conversation, I mentioned that it was a Heritage model, first registered in 2000. No it isn't I was told, because it doesn't have a Heritage plate in the engine bay. I've checked the original sales invoice (I bought it used in 2004) and it clearly says it is a Heritage. I've researched the VIN number, but that only seems to confirm the details I know. So, who is right here? How can I check? Any help would be most appreciated.
 
Has i got the unique white ivory instrument displays?

It has ivory dials with black numbers and bright bezels. It's also got green leather seats.
 
I would say yes too if it has those displays which were apparently unique to the Heritage model. There are plenty Heritage look alikes but don't think anyone would have got hold of a set of heritage clocks to change them.

I don't like them. To me they look more at home in a Fiat 500 than a Land Rover. I think that plastic faux S1 'wire grill' looks bloody awful too!
