I've just met a guy in a bar in Falmouth Harbour, Antigua, who says it's his and would like it back.

Good luck ukmgranger with your search! They are delightful vehicles as many on here will advise.

Just wanted to get a heads up
Sorry it is not mine but I have travelled fairly extensively in Australia but we have a different set of registration plates and can honestly say that I have never spotted that registration on ANY local cars so that should rule out an Aussie owning it. However many of your fellow countrymen and women manage to 'escape' to the Antipodes so you might be well advised to 1) check out AULRO (Australian Land Rover Owners comprehensive website) or 2) just give up with the local lot.
BTW, do the LEDs flash in sequence with the left and right indicators or are they there just for decoration as they couldn't possibly put out decent light to supplement the fog lights? Further I believe they are possibly too low for effective use in drizzly weather. They would reflect into the eyeline of oncoming drivers and possibly be infringing some archaic law regarding supplementary lights. (Maybe that is why no-one has owned up to being a previous owner.)

But that is just my opinion; your mileage may vary <g>LeighW
The old girl is on her third engine...
* first ran a bearing (design failure in original engine)
* second had a failure of the water outlet on top of the engine (pls check yours)

My wife says if it's mine I'm dead, another one is not needed and I'd better not have bought it.
But...... It's shape is familiar, but the colours all wrong.
So it's not mine, the panic is over, the SWMBO'd is still speaking.
Good luck with your search.D3 SE MY55 [gone]

While preparing for my trip of doom tomorrow to pick up Sanky and wheels, my lovely SWMBO mentioned that she thought the pic looked like mine. I assured her that I'd already checked twice, but she wasn't having any of it
So just been out and taken a really good look and am sure it's not mine, but called her out to help, well it took about 1 hour in total, but she's now happy and we can both confirm that it's not mine
Cheers
