Land Rover

The Queen is a confident driver and would invariably take guests around the Balmoral Estate in Scotland in a Land Rover. A British diplomat recalled in his memoirs, Ever The Diplomat: Confessions of a Foreign Office Mandarin, that the Queen once gave a tour to a visiting prince from Saudi Arabia – at a time when women were banned from driving in that country – accelerating along the narrow estate roads. Apparently, the prince begged the Queen to slow down and concentrate on the road ahead!
