Just bought a 2003 model of the above. I know that they were promotion vehicles as it is a 1.8 petrol. All I can find is a few hundred of the Tangiers were made with a similar number in yellow.
Does anyone know how many remain in service in G4 colours??
Also, would be interested in the standard spec, what wheels would it have been fitted with originally etc.
Many thanks

No one knows how many it seems!!
Can anyone say what wheels it would have been supplied with? It has HSE Trek wheels but I have a set of 6 spoke Freedom alloys.

Hi Andy
There are not that many about. My dad actually has one. (Just had to redo the head gasket, classic 1.8 issue!)
We fitted the 5 spoke rims that would have been on the real challenge vehicles. There are some brouchers on ebay about the vehicles. So that might show the options it had when new? As not 100% sure myself what they came fitted with!
This image might help,

Thanks Ant,
Brochure shows 6 spoke freedom 17 inch alloys.
The 16 inch were 5 spoke.
I am enjoying mine, might do a V6 conversion or just enjoy it as it is. It has had the HG done twice according to history and has the cooling mods so hopefully with gentle use it will be fine.
Mine is a 2003, originally from Chester.

Who - in their right mind would put a V6 in a Freelander.
Clue - Land Rover ?

Tis true!! Nice combination though when it is working well and if you have 5 ft long thin arms to work on the engine!!

Kalahari came with these 👍
They are 17”
The event cars had the 16”
The dunsfold collection has a genuine car for ref pics
I do have a set of 5 of the 17” wheels for sale in Leicester they are easy to come by
Hope that helps
