HRH Prince Phillip

Nice to see the old boy out in his HSE this afternoon, rocking up to his great grandsons birthday party. This is actually Aintree Green when not in showery conditions (I've seen him in it a year ago), rather than the black that it looks like.

When I picked my car up the salesman told me the car was previously owned my an air marshal which I took with a pinch of salt, but when I was pairing my phone in it still had his name in, and the home location in the sat nav was Windsor Castle. Google his name and found he was the Constable and Governor of Windsor Castle (retired air marshal)

They are more than likely not leased they are given them for free as its good advertising for the brand?

Gift cars

When I was negotiating on my current Freelander my wife asked what car David Beckham drove. The sales lady said it was a Range Rover Vogue which cost 」110k just like the two which Land Rover had given to the Queen and Kate Middleton. When I asked why cars were being given out to people who actually could afford them, she said that the product placement was priceless.

Phil's FL2 is on the reg plate OXR1 - he's had several over the years, all in green. It's part of Norfolk life being forced off a country lane by the oncoming Duke! Td4 XS manual, Orkney Grey, MY2014

If they gave everyone here a free one wouldnt that be good product placement too? Very Happy
On second thoughts if the message gets out theyre going for free it wont do anything for the Chunnel situation I suppose. Rolling with laughter

Why would they give us a free one when we all went out and paid for one...? Very Happy

I would have thought Philip would have been better with "A PH1L" as a private plate?

And does the Queen have "A1 HRH" ?

When The Queen with Prince Philip visited here a few years back her Range Rover was given the registration mark "HM". Afterwards it was withdrawn as all registrations must include a number. driving on the right side
