Spotted a white one yesterday on the Edinburgh city bypass hauling a Defender on a trailer. A lot of mixed feelings about its towing stability but this one wasn't hanging around. 23.5MY Defender 90 X-Dynamic SE D250 MHEV Pangea Green

2014 Discovery 4 3.0 SDV6 XS Auto Indus Silver

Didn't see you on the bypass yesterday. Would have noticed you with your prominent rear end.

we were heading east around 1pm on our way back home. Saw three yesterday. Blue one in Aviemore, black one parked at Carfraemill on A68 and grey one on A1 Gateshead bypass. Only four in total during week in Morayshire. Meant to have look in Pentland, Elgin but weather was too good for car browsing. 2014 MY Discovery XS Indus Silver. Sadly gone. Second last LR of forty eight years continuous ownership.

Ahh! That could explain it.

travelling incognito. I would have noticed the D5 and trailer so it must have been a different time. The bypass was pretty busy in places yesterday. Mind you when we use the A720 it is normally on Saturdays. 2014 MY Discovery XS Indus Silver. Sadly gone. Second last LR of forty eight years continuous ownership.

Home by about 4ish after a 6 hour journey. Tend to avoid all bypasses at rush hours. Had enough of them when working.

Good grief, what happened today?

I've seen two or three D5's on the road in Devon and Cornwall since the launch but today, they're everywhere!

I guess it must be the half term holidays and the Home Counties have emptied out into the far South West for the week

That'll make driving down narrow lanes interesting for the next few days...

Spotted 2 today around Canary Wharf and one in Southwark all Blue with Invictus Games livery. People driving were all in Invictus Games gear too. I expect they will be showing off the 7 seats and load hauling capabilities ferrying VIP's and Athletes around. MY06 S - Gone but not forgotten
