WHAT’S FOR DINNER? LAND ROVER’S DISCOVERY IS THE PERFECT RECIPE FOR JAMIE OLIVER’S DREAM KITCHEN-ON-THE-GO
Chef and TV personality Jamie Oliver and Jaguar Land Rover Special Vehicle Operations (SVO) have created the ultimate kitchen on four wheels highlighting the versatility of the Land Rover Discovery. Jamie’s bespoke family SUV comes with a host of cooking features including a slow‑cooker, barbecue, ice cream maker, olive oil dispenser and will even churn butter as you drive.
The SVO team worked with Oliver, a lifelong Land Rover fan and customer, to bring his vision to life, creating a truly unique Discovery equipped with custom cooking gear such as a toaster in the center console and a rotisserie driven by the power take off. Other features include a slow‑cooker that sits beside the engine, a pasta maker, a gas burner and a foldable dining table and worktop. There is even an herb garden and spice rack in the rear windows.
I gave Land Rover a massive challenge to create the ultimate kitchen on wheels. I dreamed big and asked for a lot, and what they’ve done has blown my mind. I didn’t think they’d actually be able to put a slow‑cooker next to the engine and an olive oil dispenser in the rear storage space, but they did. The result is an amazing Discovery, tailored perfectly for me and my family – we love it. This unique creation means we can take our culinary adventures to the next level.
Jamie Oliver
Chef and TV personality
The SVO team prides itself on making the impossible happen, so was only too happy to help bring Jamie’s ideas to life.
As a team, we never imagined we would be asked to produce wheels that churn butter so it has been great fun working alongside Jamie to bring his vision to life. He really wanted to push the boundaries of what was possible with this versatile vehicle and the team fully embraced the challenge. The Discovery helps our customers make every day an adventure, and this special vehicle will give Jamie and his family the chance to cook amazing meals during a road trip.

Head of Bespoke at SVO
With up to 82.7 cubic feet of luggage space and storage for modern family essentials, the versatile seven‑seater Discovery was the perfect vehicle for SVO to modify for this active family. SVO added a custom aluminum sink, a flat screen TV and foldable kitchen worktop that also doubles as a dining table. Additional modifications included a spice drawer, a bespoke mortar and pestle and a Land Rover barbecue.
