West Midlands giant Land Rover celebrated the production of its one millionth Range Rover last week by donating the vehicle to Help for Heroes.

The car was driven down to London with a convey of past and present Range Rovers where it was presented to the charity in front of 500 of the company's employees.

Estimates suggest that the car will raise over £100,000 when it goes to auction.

Peta Todd, a patron of Help for Heroes said: "There's a real niche market for collectors, especially with something like Range Rover.

Fellow patron Jeremy Clarkson was also present at the event. He said: "I was doing the maths this morning and I thought it can't possibly be a million.

"I know we get through a lot of them on Top Gear, but I didn't think we'd get a million of them."

"If you get the right auction, it'll raise a fortune and that'll be great."
