Yeah, it's a fake. And a stupid one at that. I mean, anyone can buy the stickers, but if you do, at least put it on something that has a roof rack and maybe a lift.

And the response is:
"i just had the land rover dealer run the vin and yes it is a true special vehicle and they are ordering me a new tag"

I'm getting the flag unfurled and preparing to run it up the flagpole.

Sweet! Must be one of those extra rare Special Vehicles. Not an XD or Camel Trophy. Probably a Pre-Kalahari or something. I bet he could put this one ebay with that information, and it would be worth double his asking price.

Wonder if this is a Creed Special Vehicle?

That's too funny! I wonder if it has a machine gun or SBR in the back cargo area!

I'm half-tempted to go and check out this rig. Just to see it. Maybe I'll wait til he gets the special "badge" from the dealer.

PT, did he give you the vin? Said he has a car-fax. Wonder if he'd send that to you?


Now if he has a special machine gun mount in the back, and an m60 is included, or he has a SBR, I might go for the rig for that price.

I've written the guy twice about it since PT exchanged emails, and he hasnt' written me back.

So if I install "TDi" on the side of my D1, does that mean it was a factory 300tdi install? SWEET!

And remember, stickers add at least 5hp each, when placed right....

I've always thought that was only true if you have already installed Lambo doors or a JC Whitney rear wing. I don't believe the stickers are worth all that much until you're already making some power.
