Having driven the car all day on Saturday without issue it started juddering quite violently at idle and lost power during acceleration on the way home. No warning lights on the dash, definite smell of petrol from the exhaust but not from the engine bay.
Managed to get it home, left it overnight and gave it a try in the morning, initially the same judder came back. Opened up the hood and restarted the engine and I could see it was shaking around quite a bit. After a few minutes idling, the juddering seemed to stop and there was only the occasional knock coming from the engine. Initially i thought it might be an air intake issue or a duct or sensor wire that had come loose but everything in the engine (that I could reach) was securely fastened.
Had LR assistance out at lunch time to take a look, they couldn't reproduce the violent shaking but there was definitely more vibration than normal and the occasional knock at higher revs. Nothing visibly loose in the engine bay. They looked at the fault codes and two had registered: engine knock and low fuel pressure. The codes were not persistent so they couldn't reproduce or diagnose a specific fault.
Going in to service tomorrow for the technicians to take a closer look. Couldn't find anyone with a similar issue so thought I would post it up, it's a P300 engine.
