Does look a bit like a DS in this shot. Definately D5 though. Wonder what they were up too, four chaps got out all in high vis jackets with clip boards. Spent a few minutes pointing at various things then all got back in and drove off.
They were probably looking at the pot holes in the road and wondering if they should go around them or risk and go over them!

My neighbour has had a run in with one. Contract driver ripped the NS door mirror off his D3 by squeezing through traffic in a LHD D5. Bully!06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti

This was actually the second one I saw in the same place. The first one was a different colour, also LHD but UK registered rather than on trade plates; also four guys, all got out with clipboards, drove off and the second one turned up a couple of minutes later. Didn't snap the first one as was putting the dogs back in the car and the phone was in the front cubby.
Thought about going up and asking for a real live test drive of the activity platform and boot space with three absolutely filthy muddy dogs just to see their faces
edit - just remembered both will be on the blackvue - I'll pull the recordings off later - it was all very odd.

Hopefully no sound on the recording in that case?

kind of. Usually walk the dogs from home but decided today to take them to their favorite woods which involves a short drive and parking up in a pull in off the main road

J77, personally I thought it looked very very nice in that colour.
As an aside, now I've seen a couple in the flesh, the design is growing on me a lot.

I've seen the colour sample at the dealers but think I need to see it in the flesh.23.5MY Defender 90 X-Dynamic SE D250 MHEV Pangea Green

I saw it at the Paris Show and it looks more like the color in the videos and LR website.
