Anywhere nice to stop for a breakfast & cuppa.
Cafe or burger van will do.

Can't help with the important stuff like where to get a good bite to eat, but hope you have a great time and I'm already looking forward to going at the end of the year.Andy

Do they still have D4s? I have a LR experience to book, but would prefer in a D4 so I can see what mine can do.....
And Eastnor certainly looks like a good site, even though its not the nearest to Essex!!

Don't think Eastnor have the D4 but East of England still have a couple.

There are definitely no D4's at Eastnor.
Unfortunately, even if you do book one, it's no guarantee that it'll still be available on your allotted day, with an alternative car being substituted.

Yes your right no disco 4s. All new disco 5s, I must say the new 5 was very nice & couldn't believe how capable it was on standard tyres. She had an all new 3 liter v6 which now has a single turbo with i think 258-268 BHP. Acceleration was very impressive too with all the weight it's shed from its all aluminum body. £58,000 on the road I think I will wait for them to come down.

You may have been misinformed; that 3 litre V6 isn't all new, it's the same one that's fitted to the D4, it's just that LR have reverted to a single turbocharger.
