Dubai ruler Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum has taken delivery of the world’s first all-aluminium Range Rover.

Al Tayer Motors, the official distributor for Range Rover in the UAE, on Sunday confirmed it had delivered two of the world’s first 2013 Range Rovers to the Dubai royal family.

Sheikh Mohammed’s limited edition Range Rover features the license plate DUBAI 1 while the Crown Prince of Dubai, Sheikh Hamdan Bin Mohammed Al Maktoum, received a second vehicle featuring a DUBAI 11 plate, said Al Tayer.

“This is a great honour for Land Rover, and we are delighted that His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum has taken delivery of the first new Range Rover globally,” Phil Popham, director of group sales operations for Jaguar Land Rover said in a statement.
