I also work at Canary Wharf, so will be drooling over the D4 most lunchtimes next week.

Haven't seen the email though, are they doing the same "off road" type course again? Seems to pack into the back of a specially designed artic trailer and uses the actual trailer as support for the up/down hill bit.

Also last year, on a completely separate note, I spent a lot of time looking at Vectrix electric scooters. Even took one home. Unfortunately for me, mainly due to the way I ride, the 60 mile range on one charge wouldn't be quite enough for the 20 mile each way trip I do from Harrow to Canary Wharf. Oh well....

There are 2 or 3 D4s there, and they are Thumbs Up big improvement in the interior, imho. LR guy said 'significant engineering changes' between D3 and D4, whatever that means. FFRR very nice too.

What time did you go?

About 12:30. Just escaped from HSBC tower for 30 mins for a quick look. Walked all the way round the LR enclosure and didn't see anything. Will give it another look tomorrow afternoon when there are less Kn*bs around.

Did you check out the BMW 5 series GT? Pretty pointless I thought. 4 seats and nearly as big as a Q7?

Thanks Jonty.

Looks like the Raised Air Intakes will cost more on the D4......you will need 2, one each side.

Interior looks nice but will be a pain for me to put by radio head units in...too much soft rounded plastic. Going the Range Rover route.

I was told that only the Supercharged RRS and FFRR have 2 intakes. The rest of the engines all have 1. He wasn't sure about the 5L V8.

I didn't open the bonnet but they looked the same to me. Maybe due to 3.0L ?? I'll have a closer look later this week.

United Kingdom 2014 Discovery 4 3.0 SDV6 HSE Auto Firenze RedDiscovery 4

Went there Wednesday afternoon,well worth a look. had a good conducted tour by a knowledgeable LR guy around the D4,what a nice vehicle the D3 has evolved into, it's even got a clock, easily visible, with hands!, not to speak of the 3.0 L twin turbo V6 diesel. Look forward to getting one when the price drops from £47500 for the HSE, and it still has the same puney light in the loadspace.
Also worth a look at is LR's off road course, easily missed 'cos it's away from the main attraction, over the road and not immediately visible. Had a ride, followed by a drive around it in LR's D3, it is (for me) quite extreem, I had forgotten how capable and technically brilliant Land Rovers are.
For jjvd21's information in Chicago, the front wings look the same length, although may have subtle detail alterations where they meet the headlamps, but either way, it's the same bonnet ( hood ) that covers the works.
Very Happy Very Happy Thumbs Up

Had a good nose around the D4 today at the show, the inside is superb and really moves the car forward in terms of quality. Looks great outside as well so well done LR.

The new Merc E class coupe looks fantastic as well Whistle The best laugh was the BMW X6, the interior trim is so cheap and nasty its amazing, the cramped and dark rear seats are not a winner either Rolling with laughter

The attitude of all the LR staff, drivers and the helpers was fantastic with nothing being too much trouble. Apparently 1 in 3 leads they take turns into a sale at this show. Just goes to show what can be done if you treat customers properly. Thumbs Up

Lights

Just seen the D4 at Canary Whalf and was impressed with the new car. The front headlights looked an improvement to what is already a good feature of the D3. Great improvements to the interior including Radio/sat nav electronics which as an extra to HSE spec was a 5 camera parking system for about £550.00. Sadly the most impressive Land Rover new Gagdit was on the Range Rover sat nav screen that when viewed from the front passenger side was a tv picture not satnav amazing never seen or heard of that. Hope to Great a D4 second hand in about 18 months time
