Morning all, this is my first time in this sub-section but I thought some of you may be interested in this.

Yesterday we were coming back from Cornwall and decided to take a roundabout route leading to Tavistock. On this section I eneded up following a Range Rover Vogue 50 for about 10 miles. It had 2 x twin exhausts and was finished in a rather nice metallic green. I'd never heard of it so googled it on getting home. Apparently quite a rare beast. This one was more distinctive by having a single digit / single number registration.

Sorry for no pics but I was driving and the GF wasn't feeling well!

The 50th was launched across the whole range back in 98. Limited additions to celebrate 50 years of Landrover. All the range including RR,Discovery,Freelander, and the ultimate collectors edition the Defender came in "Atlantis" blue which was a flip colour depending on the angle you were looking at could be green or blue. This was my 50th edition Defender.......

I quite fancy one of the P38's and I've always lusted after the 50th. That's a fine looking one. smile

I was recovered by a '50' Defender recently. Was good to see it being used in anger.
