Charles in Land Rover celebrations

The Prince of Wales is going to join the celebrations for the 60th anniversary of Land Rover.

Charles will visit the company's factory in Lode Lane, Solihull, where he will cut the company's Birthday cake and unveil a plaque.

He will spend time at the plant watching the robotic construction of the bodies for Discovery 3 and Range Rover Sport vehicles, and viewing heritage vehicles and the LRX Concept car in "The Home of the Legend" forecourt.

The original Land Rover was unveiled at a motor show in Amsterdam on April 30, 1948.

The company will be celebrating its 60th anniversary year throughout the summer with a series of special activities and events.

The Prince will be met at the factory by Land Rover director George Hassall.
