"Revisions were: scrunchie door pockets instead of hard pockets, a larger steering wheel, cloth headlining replaced the previous vinyl, larger more comfortable seats with armrests finished in ICI Ambler replaced the leather seats, more luxurious carpets, higher final drive gearing, solid road wheels replaced the previous vented type and the chrome hubcaps were replaced by stainless steel items, front quarter lights and larger wood door cappings all gave a more upmarket feel to the car." from here - excellent 3-Litre website, well worth exploring.
