Much of Casino Royale is set and was filmed on location on New Providence Island in the Bahamas; the Range Rover Sport used in filming was a left-hand drive model with Bahamas registration plate 161138. From its badging the Range Rover appears to be a 2006 year Sport HSE (High Specification Equipment) model.

The second half of Quantum Of Solace is set in Bolivia, but the scenes set in La Paz were filmed on location in Panama City, Panama, and the desert scenes were filmed in Chile and in Baja, California (the airstrip scene).  The Range Rover Sport used in filming was left-hand drive and appears to be a 2008 year model based on the wheels fitted.
