Thought that the Maestro van was used for the original Discovery mule? Certainly used the same tail light cluster as well as a lot of the switches & indicator stalks etc from the Metro/Maestro/Montego parts bin.

Definitely Freelander. The Discovery mule was essentially the original Range Rover Laughing Darren

The Maestro van was used quite a lot, remember this was back in the era of British Leyland.

The original Disco used many BL parts, mostly from the Maestro van such as the rear lights and door handles. Apparently this was because there was so little money for development and tooling for the new vehicle that every penny mattered.
