Don't forget anyone attending take your Land Rover key to the LR hospitality and you'll be given free food and drink all day long!
My kids still haven't got over it....kept asking me why we could get free food? Told them we were special.....!!
Nothing to do with the fact I'd just spent £72k recently!

My mother in law wanted to 'borrow' my keys last year, she got told to buy her own bacon butties the cheeky cow. If she and her husband can afford three porches they can afford a butty...De-Tango

Ohmygosh!! Really? Shame they don't do it for all Horse Trial events that they have a stand at, never mind hospitality!! Will defo be going car key in outstretched hand and hope they don't care it's a 2007 model and not new

They do do it at most events..... And they really don't care how old it is! If you're part of the club then you're in!
If the event is sponsored by Land Rover then invariably the hospitality will be there! They sponsored Burghley and the World Equestrian Games in Normandy last year.... Free food all day long! Happy Days!
Wish they're sponsor Badminton....normally that's Mitsubishi sponsored day and it costs me a fortune!

That's one of the really nice things about it; no snobbishness, we're all LR owners togather!

I never knew any of this! Equi-Trek sponsor the event, but LR always run the BE field cars for Bramham International HT but I don't think I've ever come across a stand/tent. Mind, I've never been looking before - no real need when I have one of the cars already I guess.
If i'd known there was a chance of freebies, I'd have been going to more events! Not just equine types either
Wonder if there's a slim chance i can get a free rugby player from the World Cup?!

I have worked at Burghley on a trade stand every year for the last 15 years. I've never managed to get off the stand and have a look round let alone get to the Land Rover experience. I did get to drive my D3 through the lake a couple of years back though
