Default Quick question...

I recently purchased another Land Rover. A 1998 Discovery. Now after doing some looking around online, I've found there are 3 models. The LSE, the 50th anniversary and another I can't remember offhand. How do I found out which one I now own?

Cheers,

Laura

Unless they've been painted over, or removed, there are decals on the side and rear saying SE, SE7, LSE, XD, etc.

Mine says LSE. But there is a mat on the boot floor saying 50th. Is that an indicator of owning the 50th anniversary one? Any others?

Is it a 98? Green? If so, there's a good chance it is. I think there's some 50th anniversary decals somewhere too.

It is a 98 yes. And it is green. I haven't seen any other decals but admittedly I haven't really looked. I drove her home and then promptly stuck her in a barn until I can fix the exhaust pipe. It would be rather exciting to discover I had purchased an anniversary edition :-)

I think the Aniversary Edition had chrome bumpers (?)

Mine has the chrome bumpers with body coloured end caps. Which one if which has disappeared.

The 50th Anniversary was finished in Woodcote Green while the LSE with chrome bumpers was typically finished in either White Gold or Brooklands Green. It may have been finished in black as well. The end caps were body color.

Does the center console have a big chunk of wood stretching from the transfer case shifter right on up through the window switches? If so, it's likely an Anniversary. If not, it could be an LSE.

Hi Paul. Yes it does have the wooden center console. But the tag says Epsom green. And as I said before it does have the body coloured end caps.

Mine is white, has LE on the fenders, and has 50th anniversary 1948 - 1998 on both of the rear quarter glass. Don't remember seeing it anywhere else.
