Land Rovers (and any vehicles with four wheel drive) are classed as dual purpose vehicles and - under current legislation - are exempt from operator licensing
Therefore, there will be no need to add this vehicle to your licence.
NB: You should contact the Central Licensing Office in Leeds, where you wish to add a goods vehicle to your operator's licence
