Does this look like a poverty spec S8?
For those well-versed in the specifications of FL S8 FE's, would you care to have a look at the following (long) Vin spec detail?
I've had a look and I can't see anything on there that suggests that the original purchaser has ticked anything on the options page. Perhaps it was ordered by a garage as a demonstrator rather than by a discerning connoisseur? Does it have anything "nice" to get excited about above what a base model S8 would have?

If it's a Final Edition, which it appears to be, they are what they are.

Mm looks like just a leather pack 1 FE.
'DC-DC converter 1.8KW' is a new one on me though. |

Power for a towbar?? (although I don't see a towbar in the specs). Do you know what leather pack 1 FE is? Is it just the exclusive colour of an FE leather interior I wonder?

Reg would help a lot, but based on the list, it feels a lot like a FE if its the right year, but the Dc-Dc converter is weird, along with Vavona inserts, which are very non-FE....

DC-DC converter might be the alternator. When I looked mine up before it said "8GT = Compact alternator 90 - 150A"

It could be mis-translation of alternator I guess. I've seen some weird things come up on some of the PR-decoders on the web.
Where did the spec list come from Dean? Maybe post the reg so Ian can do the honors? Leather pack 1 I think is the exclusive colour plus some of the trim. I can't find any pics now, but some of the FEs have more colour than others - both mine are very, very red with everything but the tops of the door cards and dash in leather, including the bottom half of the dash and tunnel trims, whereas others just have the usually-alcantara inserts in the door panels in red. IIRC, just the door inserts is pack 1, the full door and lower dash is pack 2, and I think pack 3 is the whole dashboard? Not sure which pack gives the coloured steering wheel. |

Good to see Northern Ireland getting a mention.
Love the sale year not matching manufactured year - I have a Nissan Cabstar on the fleet that was manufactured 3 years before we bought it brand new.....needless to say when it was discovered, the dealer had a lot of explaining to do. Sorry for the thread hijack.....as you were
