Then again it could be at the bidding of new Land Rover owners Ford "any
colour so long as it is black" as Henry said.

I've been thinking.... is green still green at night, like is grass green in
the darkness, or does it go black, in which case does green paint stay green
in total darkness or does that go black too.. and if they both go black then
what colour does black go. Dark black? And if a tree falls down in the
forest an no one is there does it still make a noise... and worse still if a
green tree falls down in the dark and it looks black and doesn't make a
noise because it thinks no one is there but some one is in a black landrover
underneath.....

I presume there's a reason, but a completely black vehicle will
actually stand out more at night than a vehicle painted in camo green
or camo/black pattern.

Indeed. The pattern you refer to is called DPM - Disruptive Pattern
Material. It's designed not to make the landrover look any actual
colour, but to break up the edges so that you don't look around and see
a Landrover-shaped shadow.
