I like the looks of the Saudi grille also. Probably because it is different from the standard and stands out in a crowd. I need to find one for my D1.

i dont think its a true "kalahari" edition... it would have different badges on the sides instead of "se7" my xd edition is one of 250 made and it says "xd" there... also there should be a riveted silver plate under the hood that says land rover special vehicles and the number and stuff and you would think the seller would have included that... but most of all is the roof rack... my roof rack does not have the factory rails under it, there is no room under it... my rack does not sit as high as the aftermarket racks and since it was installed from the factory the normal roof rails were not needed so they were never installed... it may be different on a d2 but there are just a few things that seem amiss on this one... still a nice rig though and probably well worth the money... but i would like to see the metal placard under the hood too....

It also seems to be low on coolant.

The bagdes are correct, heres a SE Kalahari, strange why it is SE7 tho,also both of these below also have roof rails to. It also has the Land Rover Special vehicles badge on the back door, you cannot buy these, you have to proove you have / owna "special" vehicle to be able to order / buy one from the dealer. I would suggest its 100% genuine tbh

well then i retract my previous statements... it was just a few things i noticed that made me think it may have just been painted and had a couple things added... but then again thats all the special editions are anyway...

I have the "borrego edition" which is very similar. I like the yellow/black and the saudi grill; the off road lights are crap, and I've added on the CDL at great expense and not used it enough to justify it. Also added a D1 roof rack because it didn't come with one, and that's what I could find on Craigslist ($100, but $100 more for the missing brackets to attach it!). Mine had Safari Gard sliders, this one doesn't.

Otherwise it looks like a fine truck. 115K is a little scary, because there would probably be a few mechanicals that wanted replacement, tho if you do the work it should last another 115k.
