I've seen footage of Edinburgh (Duke of, not the city!) driving a FL2 on one of the many royal estates, so I think they have at least one in their fleet.

Firenze red, Mauritius blue, Baltic blue and Santorini black are my current favourites. But I'd probably end up ordering a new FL2 in Mauritius. Lets hope LR keep some of the colours for the new Freelander. Thumbs Up

No driving onto MiniTerrapod, a mobile system which allows you to set up and demonstrate any LR or RR model in virtually any setting that has a large enough piece of flat ground. Allows you to demonstrate, hill climb, hill descent, side slope and axle twister.

Eric Pollard aka Chris Chittell from "Emmerdale" also uses an Aintree Green FL2 (on the ubiquitous OV/OE/OYxx Plate that JLR seem to have adopted) ... Watch out for it...nice bit of product placement alongside the Vauxhalls that also feature! Foraging near Gaydon....

My plate is an OY. Does that mean it was an LR car before I bought it?

Every Land Rover UK car that come out of Gaydon up here is one of those three Reg Markers.....apart from the Press Cars and test mules which all seem to be VXxx (Worcestershire, I believe?) Foraging near Gaydon....
