Just been reported on the BBC news that Prince Philip has been involved in an accident whilst out driving his "Range Rover" near Sandringham. Shaken but unhurt it reports. They report that the car overturned after the accident as he was pulling out onto a main road and was hit by another car. The video shown is rather poor quality but I think that it shows a Freelander on the back of the recovery truck and not a Range Range as reported.

Good to see the FL2 did a good job protecting him and any passengers.

I live locally and have seen him drive around. Let’s just say that he doesn’t hang about!
In this case it looks like he may have pulled out in front of a car st a t-junction.

BBC are still calling it a Range Rover (face palm)

I wonder if they made him do a breath test at scene of the RTC  2007 TD4 XS The work horse that earns its up keep

1973 Triumph Stag I bought in 2009 and restored.

I saw it as blue as well, HSE Alloys on it (18's)

I thought the green one was up at Balmoral, and another one down at Windsor? I saw that James French recently sold the green D4 that commanded a ridiculous premium as being marked "Ex-Royal Household"

I hope that it wasn't the green one, they are becoming as rare as hens teeth!

From what it looks like the old guy pulled out into the path of a oncoming car.

I wonder if he has a driving licence? The Queen doesn't. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto
