Wondering what premium ( if any ) the 40th anniversary (black edition) cars get...if seen an 80k miler at auction and was curious.. Range Rover SC 35th Anniversary 2006

It depends on the spec as they do vary.

Put simply, an AB black without rear entertainment, reclining seats or tow bar may well be cheaper than a regular AB with them.
Top to bottom this can be as much as £5k.

I wanted the 2 colour interior which others didn't have, so paid the price for a very clean fully loaded car. By contrast I could have bought a similar age / mile vse for 6k less, but not even close on the same spec.
A similar spec AB with all black interior was around 2k less. Too many toys, not enough time

I thought the specs were all the same like the 35th anniversary etc.

2 tone leather with the choice of 4.4 tdv8s or 5.0 SC?


The I am looking at doesn't have RSE but does have the 2 tone leather and has been to overfinch from new to get the GT styling pack. Range Rover SC 35th Anniversary 2006

So did I when I started looking, but they differ.
I think I have a copy of the sales brochure that I got from this forum (from gonna go double r or stuart I think)
All are the same colour with the same wheels, side vents, grill, and black specific badges, door trims, and rear seat logo.
The document wallet is also special, and they came with a special key ring (that is over 100 quid if your that bothered to get one)

Interior can be white/black or red/black. I think all black was an option too but not seen one.
They don't however all have 4 zone a/c, rear seat entertainment, reclining seats, or tow bar.
I also don't think they all have timed climate remote, or dual view screen, at least from the advert pictures I saw.

Hope that helps. Too many toys, not enough time

Thanks John that helps a lot. Range Rover SC 35th Anniversary 2006

One other thought,if it has rear seat entertainment it should come with 2 sets of cordless headphones, and also a remote in the rear armrest.
The spare is also a full size spare on mine, which I assume they all were but worth checking. Too many toys, not enough time

Ok thanks it doesn't have RSE and I assume it doesn't have reclining seats as the little knobby thing isn't on the door panel? Range Rover SC 35th Anniversary 2006

Another thing I've just noticed and wondered if anyone knew...the gearbox is not the rotary controlled version, is it still the zf 8 speed in another form? or is it a defferent box altogether? Range Rover SC 35th Anniversary 2006

It won't be a 4.4tdv8 if it's not pop up rotary with paddles. I don't think the 8 speed was offered without this.

There were some 3.6 tdv8s when I was looking, had the old style selector. The vogue centre had them, black/red interior. I wondered whether they were proper AB Black's or just spec'd the same, but since I wanted a 4.4 they were ruled out anyway.
I don't know what the petrol had as I didn't see any when looking.

Here is a link from when I was looking that has old style selector. I assume this is an s/c petrol based on the exhaust tips.

Just found this

Which has reminded me of a couple other things.
There was a choice of headlining colour. This car has black, mine has parchment (I think, it's light cream anyway).
Also the surround cameras were an option.

If you have a picture of the home menu you will see if the option for the cameras is there. Too many toys, not enough time

Duel view screen
Pre-heat
Adaptive Suspension (variable dampeners) never heard of this option in an L322? Any idea about it sounds like it could be something that can go wrong easy...how much was this as an option?
Upgraded 1200w sound system

And that's it ..no RSE or rear recline seats. Range Rover SC 35th Anniversary 2006
