Correct me if I am wrong!
However, I am sure that they didn't do the Autobiography in the L322 until the 2009 face-lift!
This is a Range Rover originally from Switzerland, currently for sale in Portugal!

Can someone confirm please 👍

I have a 2004 autobiography (genuine). You can tell because they have a plate stating it is an autobiography model.

Aha! I knew it! Cheers Stan!

It's worth making the distinction between a special 'Autobiography programme' vehicle which was delivered under the LR Special Vehicles banner (which will have a 'contract number'/'order number') plate under the bonnet and the 'Autobiography' trim level, which was a standard vehicle available 'off the shelf' and may/will have just a badge on the back.

Bit confusing that LR chose to name a trim level 'Autobiography' when it had previously used that moniker for vehicles ordered with specific customisation for buyers' requirements. 2012 (L322) 4.4TDV8 Vogue SE, RSE, Fuji White over Arabica.
Previous V8s: BMW 645Ci, P38 4.6, P38 4.0, Merc CL500
Previous others: Honda x1, Volvo x7, Rover x6, BMW x6, Ford x1, Mercedes x2, Skoda x3, VW x2, Renault x2, Citroen x1, Mazda x3, Nissan x1, Audi x3, Kia x1, Fiat x4, Subaru x3, Austin x2, Triumph x2, Jeep x2, Hyundai x2, Lexus x1, Mitsubishi x1, Saab x2... and some others I've forgotten!

Interestingly, it does have the Special Vehicles badge under the wing indicator lights!

I mean that could just be a sticker off eBay. Only way to know if it's an SV-delivered vehicle is to ask if there's a plate under the bonnet (normally on the slam panel) and if possible get a picture of it.

ETA: looking at the pictures, nothing about the car screams 'special order LRSV Autobiography programme'. It appears to be a VSE with the rear entertainment fitted as far as I can see. 2012 (L322) 4.4TDV8 Vogue SE, RSE, Fuji White over Arabica.
Previous V8s: BMW 645Ci, P38 4.6, P38 4.0, Merc CL500
Previous others: Honda x1, Volvo x7, Rover x6, BMW x6, Ford x1, Mercedes x2, Skoda x3, VW x2, Renault x2, Citroen x1, Mazda x3, Nissan x1, Audi x3, Kia x1, Fiat x4, Subaru x3, Austin x2, Triumph x2, Jeep x2, Hyundai x2, Lexus x1, Mitsubishi x1, Saab x2... and some others I've forgotten!

Yes, the spec looks pretty standard!
Looks like they have pimped it up a little with fitting the 2009 back lights and the badges.
Likely just a standard SE.
I will go and see it at some point and check for plates under the bonnet!
I will let you know my findings!

Incidentally, prices for L322's here in Portugal are mental! 5 x the price you can pick them up for in the UK!
However, I still buy them anyway!
It's an illness! 😆

Dont fancy a French one as well do you?

Might be tempted by an offer on my lpg converted 4.2sc owned by me for 11 years, first few years since built in Majorca last 5 years in Portugal, rhd and matriculated

Make me an offer 😎

Unfortunately to import and register them here is costly and nightmare due to all the bureaucracy!

I can see a competition coming on, to sell RRdude a 4.2 Supercharged
