Why not a concrete pad where you can work on the car and block the rest

I've seen enough block paved drives with parts that had sunk I always put a sheet of shuttering ply under my jack and axel stands.
A friend who looked after his own cars and serviced others had a good solution. He removed some blocks and dropped some concrete in the hole and gave himself jacking points.

Use scaffold planks. You can still allow movement on a trolley jack. I'd worry more about the oil leaks that range rovers leave when marking their territory.
