Honoured to have had an Audience with Her Majesty The Queen today at Buckingham Palace. Her Majesty recalled her visit to #Mauritius in 1972, including the trip in a Jaguar XJ6 convertible. Many have fond memories of that special visit - @JaguarUK @RoyalFamily pic.twitter.com/8Uo9lLsYLd

The Queen and Duke of Edinburgh were on a visit to the then Dominion of Mauritius, the last stop of a massive Tour of Southeast Asia, which began in Thailand, and was followed by visits to Singapore, Malaysia, Brunei, where Princess Anne returned to London while the Queen and Duke visited the Seychelles and Mauritius on board the Royal Yacht Britannia. The Queen alighted from the Royal Yacht at Port Louis in a gown and the Vladimir Tiara, travelling in a Jaguar XJ6 convertible to open the Mauritian Parliament, where she gave a speech.
