There was another freshen-up in May 84 with various shiny bits upgraded across the range, and the black rear badge plinth from the 82+ Vitesse was fitted on all versions. It was also the point when SE versions of 2600 and 3500 stopped, with 2600 SE replaced by 2600 VdP. My guess is this is July 83+ final version of 2600 SE for alloys and possible chrome mirror.
