    Wasnt there a difference in the build country as well in regards to the sailsbury????
    The south african models came out for a bit longer with the sailsbury,possibly just a stock on hand issue???

    I thought it was around the time they started sourcing them from South Africa as opposed to the UK -- 2002-ish.
