Seen one on the road
Unfortunately where I live seems to be part of the route they use to road test the cars. This evening we spotted a new FFRR in a midnight blue/purple colour WOW and a D4 in a very shiny cream colour.In the Beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Just back from NYC and visited the motorshow, where LR released the new cars.
I have to say out of all the models the D4 has had the best facelift of all. It looked fabulous, as did the FFRR. 8)
All in all I'd give the new HSE 10/10 for it's new styling. The interior had some dodgy plastics, but I think that was due to it being a US model?
The FFRR, D4 and RRS had the New Yorkers crawling over them, but the F2 was ignored, evidently it is not a big seller in the US and this showed.

Loads of the 2010 models of FFRR, RRS and D4 running around near Gaydon at the minute too.
Have seen a D4 with a black (not silver) grille too.
I do hope you are clip boarding this down Martin very important Home of RLD Hidden winch mounts Spare wheel Locks Trailer Body Fabrication ray@rld-tech.co.uk D3/4 sump plates MY 14 sump plates and the Discovery Sport wheel protectors Discovery 5 wheel locks

I saw the same d4 in a met cream colour southbound on the M5 nr cheltenham last wednesday, me thinks they are running them around the dealer network to give um a sneak preview or they're press cars.
If anyone lives nr coventry, head out the a46 towards rugby, opposite the shell station /travel lodge /little chef there's a turning off a slip road on the east side which is signposted to a trading estate, go along the lane and an industrial estate is on the left hand side around a mile after a very sharp right hand bend, Jag have a PDI handover place there as well as listers PDI centre, normally quite alot of press cars are there for distribution including LR/JAG/Fords.

D4 in Pembridge
Andrew,
Saw the D4 at the same time as you last night, I was in the black D3 in front of you on my way to Shobdon Aero Club. I liked the convoy of black RR sport's trying to keep up with the D4 with all occupants grinning like cheshire cats
