Out and about in Hua Hin Thailand and I see a few olde worlde series knockin' about

While I'm not a series kinda guy i thought you veterans of the wheel might be interested

In the market quarter. I think this is a static lannie

Interior is rought, I like the security option

Here's a mint condition one though:

Maybe but the way the corner is rounded above the lights looks "sharper" than a Series, i.e. more like a Defender. It's a subtle difference but looks like it.

The only reason I brought it up was there was a really nice looking S3 in an old issue of Land Rover (World possibly?), it was a soft-top with a Union Jack on the bonnet and largish tyres. Normally I would say with a Series keep it original but this thing looked fantastic, I don't think the Defender style front (i.e. no recessed grill) would have suited it as well.

To the point... One of the subtle enhancements made to it was to replace the Series wings with Defender ones.
