It was, as it states, a 50th Anniversary edition. Land Rover produced variations for most important markets.
We got;
375 Defender 90's
4.0litre V8
Auto gearbox
Safari cage (not called a roll-cage, for litigation fears :roll: )
Leather seats
Special trim items
Gunmetal grey 'FreeStyle' alloys
Number plaque on the off-side rear
See the 'Defender 50th' link (below) for a dedicated website
Current issue of 'LRW' features a 50th on the cover & an excellent article


1000 FreeLanders
Not too sure on the specific extras on this one (check out the albums on my 'WebShots')

1000 Discoverys
Lightstone leather on all 7-seats
'Boost' alloys
Stainless trim on inner sills
Radio/tape/ 6 CD multi-changer
Roof-rails
Available on all 4 variations, but initially no Tdi auto, introduced due to demand
Heated windscreen

100 Range Rovers
A high specification, that only really offered one 'premium' upgrade to SAT-nav & TV

I've only ever seen one on the road

All models were finished (for the UK market anyway) in 'Atlantis Blue', which changes colour between blue & green, dependant on the light striking it.
Discoverys were also offered in 'White Gold'

Other markets, ie; Japan offered white vehicles

Hope this fills some gaps in for you :wink:
