Awesome. Thanks, jymmiejamz.
What tool did you use to get this info?
I appreciate you taking your time to do this. Thanks.

I work for Land Rover so I can access the build sheet. I also can view the warranty history (not out of warranty service or repairs). It looks like the only major repair to this Disco was a CV joint replacement and swivel ball reseal on the same side.

I've seen two real XD's back when they were on the dealer show room and I also have a pic off the brochure and the lower headlight finishers were black.

Only thing both XD's I saw were cloth interiors with the waterproof seat covers. Any dealer could have swapped out the seats for leather at the time of sale (plenty of SD's had their cloth removed and replaced with Leather).

I've owned 2 Special Vehicle LR's from a 97 Range Rover Vitesse in AA Yellow to my 02 Kalahari in Borrego Yellow and neither one of them had the SV tag.

I was very lucky to find a down south 02 Kalahari with absolutely zero rust anywhere on it. It was extremely well maintained and it shows even with 227K on it you'd think you were driving a D2 with under 100K on it for sure.

I used to see an XD all the time when I first moved to Houston, TX and then one day I just stopped seeing it. Lately in Houston/Galveston I've spotted a clean 03/4 Trek D2, but besides my Kalahari I don't think any other SV LR's are in my neck of the woods.

The seats, dash, and headliner have been replaced on this Eco, due to Florida sun. I loved the seat covers on our '97 XD; makes sliding in and out easier. Too bad Rovers don't have swingaway steering wheels like the '62 Thunderbird we once had!
