Interesting, do you have details on the options? was it like headlight protectors and floor mats?
even more amber annunciator lights
second nosewheel steering tiller
heated third cockpit windows (more typical in northern Europe than SE Asia)
second weather radar
brake temp gauges
external park brake warning light
etc

and headlight protectors and floor mats
