We followed a 63 plater near Derby yesterday and it looked splendid.

Thanks for that link.
Simply the best at what they do.
I've never owned one but have driven many variants in a previous life overseas. Never visited a country where you didn't see a few either.

I'd be surprised if the future JLR Land Rovers' will be as good in the long term for their current customer base as the 'old' Landies, but I suppose as a business model going forward, the writing has been on the wall for quite a long time.
The old design will continue to be produced somewhere in the world, but i'm not sure what the chances are that they will be able to sell them new in this country due to ever tightening emission and safety legislation.
It will be interesting to see.
