Yes, the front plate was still attached.

I'm pretty sure it was only burnt very recently. It's a quiet road, but fairly well used :-/

Hi - Not sure if this is the right place to do this, but I'm afraid I drove past your Defender this morning, burnt out on the side of the road in Cheapside, a couple of miles from Legoland :-/. I've called the Police, so I'm sure you'll hear through official channels soon. I took some photos...
