Just going to check on my lads as we are decorating the offices and visitor centre at the new SVO at JLR Fen End in front of me waiting to go in was a Transporter with 6 x 66 plate Landmarks all in Aintree Green with black 20" wheels all regs starting O. I just wonder what's happening to them, cannot ask any JLR bods on site sworn to secrecy me thinks. 17 Golf GT TDI Tornado Red

All the cars the managers use start O (OE, OY, OW etc) so could be those.
If they are white they are likely to be Experience cars.

Especially as Aintree Green was never a Landmark colour (Mind you, neither was Loire Blue, but some were made and sold)

Pound to a penny says those are all off to live a 'Royal' life somewhere, at least for the next 3-4 years at any rate.... That's the usual colour in the hills and glens. Especially with the giveaway 'O' prefix..

They may be on their way back from whatever use they've had, rather than on the way out? 06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti

You may well be right, after all its the new Special Vehicle Operation (SVO) facility. I had a walk around yesterday in the new factory. They JLR must be expecting some orders as there are 140 pits spray shops the place is massive. I have been told everything Overfinch did or do, it will be done here only better. It opens in June I think. Its been built on an existing facility as there is a test track and large storage areas. 17 Golf GT TDI Tornado Red
