nice S2 on Endeavour

[Richard]

Nice bronze green 88" Series 2 (2a?) on Endeavour Morse, Series 5, episode 4 (only now on Dutch television), around 43:00. Registration number 32KK19, which the DVLA doesn't know, but the MOD says (on page 3/3) is a "TRUCK UTY MED (HT) W/VPK LAND ROVER 110 V8 PTL (DESERTISED)". Interesting (Image quality leaves something to be desired...)

That would follow. Military registrations often get re-allocated once a vehicle is cast, so its quite feasible its something else now. Can't be many V8s on the UK MOD fleet these days (if any), so that information is probably out of date.

As an aside, the 110 that apparently carries this number is an armoured one from 1993 Model Year. The ones that went to NP Aerospace were armoured which explains the V8. Commonly known as "Snatch" Land Rovers which didn't get a great name for themselves in Iraq or Afghanistan given that the armour design was for civil defense operations in Northern Ireland, not a full on war situation.

The army or the RAF did not reuse registrations only the Royal Navy. It looks like they just made up a number in the military format that happens to coincide with a much later Land Rover.
