Bit of an update on what I have seen myself.

Ex LR management vehicles do exist and will have their first registered keeper on the log book as:

Jaguar land rover limited, land rover company vehicle mcp, 125 heyford park, camp road, upper heyford, bicester, ox25 5ha.

Mileage can be up to 20k miles and I've seen some (with log book) transfer away from the original MCP user at 13.5 months.

The selling main dealer will have received the log book with the vehicle on the day the vehicle arrives at the dealership. The log book will have the top right section 9 cut out as this is sent to the dvla to advise them the vehicle is no longer owned by the original keeper. The dealer will also be able to get hold of the service history sheet and print this for you. The mileage the vehicle has on the LR web site advert seems to be the same as that of the paperwork the dealer has, and the service sheet history, but the vehicle may physically have more miles on the dash. Not just delivery miles. Sometimes 300 miles when the selling dealer is within 50 miles of where the first service took place by Paragon - after being taken off the MCP scheme.

Ex LR Assistance courtesy vehicles used as courtesy vehicles when yours is broke'd under warranty will be first registered to Scott Group Ltd (Thrifty car rental) or whoever the lease agent at the time the vehicle was put on lease. The first registered keeper name and address on the log book should reflect this.

Ex LR experience vehicles are more likely to be white than any other colour but not necessarily. If an experience vehicle fails and is taken back by LR (rolled, badly failed or needs too much work to get constant faults fixed etc) then LR only build to order for end user buyers or dealers who order for their own personal stock. Hence getting a quick replacement may be difficult at short notice so it's not unknown for experience centre's to have a none white LR experience vehicle. I've seen a blue D4 and red RR and the info I have put here is the history I was told about these vehicles by the experience centre. Taking a vehicle from the MCP pool is the only choice they have if a LR experience vehicle is taken out of use and needs replaced.

You may see paperwork with Paragon Fleet Services (or solutions) on it. They seem to provide the buy back service mechanism to LR, which includes MCP vehicles. They provide PDI pre delivery inspection checks (I've seen several service history sheets listing Paragon PDI at around 10 miles when the vehicle was new) and are also approved to carry out servicing (I've seen several at 6 to 14 months from new). For example you may see Paragon as the first service provider. It's interesting to see their address on the service history as follows which is the same as that for MCP vehicles above. I assume LR operate on the same site or at least have an office there. It may be Paragon sort out the MCP fleet for LR on their behalf.
