Italy 2011 Range Rover Vogue 4.4 V8 Santorini Black
Fake AB Black Limited Edition?

dear members,
I would like to have your esteemed opinion on the following vehicle (see pictures please)
From the pictures I can observe that the wheels do not appear to be the original AB black limited edition ones...
In addition, the badge is on the left hand side, while I always saw it on the right hand side...
Do you think it is an impostor?

From other pictures it appears fine, like see the wooden badge in the door?

Could it be that some cars were produced with the badge on the left (German maybe?) and the owner sold the original wheels?

How hard would it be to find the original AB black wheels?
I believe only 700 cars were made so I think it could be next to impossible?

Or maybe it is just an AB with a badge of AB black on it and a diamond grille?

what you opine?

2008 Range Rover Vogue TDV8 Stornoway Grey

If your going to add some 'items' to your car, don't let it be a badge saying it's something it clearly isn't Rolling Eyes Is this where I put the car details and a bit about myself ?........

United Kingdom 2016 Range Rover Vogue SE TDV6 Montalcino Red

IIRC the seats were embossed with the words " autobiography black" so a bit of a give away if not
also it came with deployable steps various other LR's this one is still the best

If you search LR Approved Used UK 5.0 SC you will see there is an A Black for sale with pictures for comparison. Selling dealer Stratstone Mayfair if that is easier to search. At first glance this one is quite different. Only Range Rovers since 1988
