There was something called a "LongRanger II" but it was really just a 206L-1 (the one with the C-28). Bell knew they screwed up the branding, so the next model was simply called the 206L-III.  And when Bell turned up the horsepower of the C30P and upped the MGW to 4450, they called that model the L-IV.  You can upgrade the L-1 with mo' powa, baby!  PHI stuck a C30P in the L-1 and called it a 206L*3.  And on and on...
