Very impressive. I think the D5 looks good in yellow with the contrasting black

I couldn't figure out whether they ran the D5 in low range. It's mentioned that it has it, obviously, but then later they say about "running it in standard mode".

It’s a nice video. Is the D5 wrapped? I didn’t know they made yellow ones.

I think it was mentioned it was wrapped in the introduction to the vehicle.

Indeed, I noticed it now when watching it for the second time. one can wonder why JLR doesn’t make any D5s in bright colors ... thst yellow looks really nice. Reminds me slightly of the Saab yellow they had in their cabrios.

Not sure wrapping or colour would help at all.

I’d drive a yellow D5... I mean if one showed up on the drive way just like that

S’pose if someone else was paying, plus fuel, tax & insurance might think about it. As long as it had tinted windows. Well I have a reputation to keep,
Looking forward to a road trip to your part of the world and north, just not sure when.

Don’t think it’s going to be possible anytime soon... I was looking at doing a trip to U.K. this summer for various reasons but that also fell through.
