I understand that when the RRS 4.2 S/C first appeared in 2005, 'First Editions' were made in limited numbers of 1000 in Silver, Black and V.orange.

What makes these 'First Edition' cars different from others? Are there any extra features worth getting excited about?

Thanks.

It's basically an HSE SC but with Lined Oak inserts, Stormers...... and from memory Premium Ice and E-Diff (would need to check to be 100% sure).

Just got out my 2005 price list, 1st Edition had the following over the "ordinary" S/C

20" Stormer wheels
Polished Line Oak interior wood
Range Rover Carpet Mats with bright strips
Choice of Black, Zambesi or Vesuvius Paint
Exclusivity - only 1000 of made for the whole world.
All for an extra £1500 over the price of the Standard S/C

James, Logic 7 was standard on both 1st Ed and S/C and the e-diff was an optional extra according to the launch price list that I have. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

First Editions are very market specific.
For example, when I ordered mine in 2005, in addition to what Tim mentioned above, the car was supposed to come with PTI, sunroof and RSE.

However, when the vehicles finally landed here, all the 1st Editions had no sunroof and RSE! To make matters worse (or rub salt into the wound) all the base models had sunroofs and RSE and they were cheaper too!!  Malaysia Boleh!
