Indeed although apparently she has a soft spot for her trusty old Range Rover

Queen spotted driving her Jaguar back from church

And sometimes you can even buy her old ones

And of course what other colour would it be but BRG ;-)

If I were in charge of PR for Jaguar I would be tempted to send her a BRG F-Type with my compliments ;-)

Traditionally the Family drove Daimlers (the VDP model in the US) and in an exclusive claret color.
