Was that an LR event or did you stumble across it?

i'm not much for black cars but that looks amazing. love the darkened skid plates (or whatever you want to call them, people will be butt hurt for me calling them that
 ).
wonder what black with a white roof would look like. |

Just tried to configure Black body with white roof on the UK Configurator, that option isn’t possible on any spec 110, you can have green with white, blue with white or silver with white but no black with white! Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come
2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior. Now gone - old faithful, no mechanical issues whatsoever ever but the leaks and rattles all over the place won’t be missed! |

you could always get an allblack one and have a film/vinyl company apply a white roof Steve N | 21MY Defender

Testing the Sand mode of the RR in the dunes of Namibia, so folks have all the luck! And they are probably being paid to drive it as well!
Bit surprised that they need a farm jack when they could use an inflatable cushion thing these days which would be much safer. The vehicle also has the factory option recovery eyes in the rear bumper and what looks like the Adventure Pack Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come 2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior.

Where would you actually put the jack to lift the car?

After all the comments about how strong the body shell is, I am sure you could hook the high lift jack under an open door and jack it up from there
 Or even under a wheel arch !! |

Just a thought about the Hi-lift jack - I wonder if their intention isn’t to use it as a jack but horizontally as a very slow winch as the car doesn’t appear to have an electric winch at the front or the back Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come

Possibly, although it could be plastic like the tread-plate, supplied as part of the £4000 urban explorer pack option
