The grey/blue Defender was from a special batch made for the Southern Electricity board in the uk, and were in fact the original badged 127 HCPU. Theres not that many around any more, i do know someone who as one and is soon to be arriving here in Australia with it. As for who built it i can find out but i doubt the company will still be in business theres days.

The other yellow one looks very similar but could be one of the newer types that you can currently buy from Europe.

Thanks for the help.
I would love to know the name of the company that made them, if you could ask your friend.
The other ones in the pics you posted are AFN ones from Portugal, they are nice, but not quite right. I like the rounded front in the pics that I posted.
