I would agree with Dave in that the TLR 22 is the most popular car at NBC, it is strong and reliable and most importantly spares are pretty easy to get hold of locally or by mail order.
Having said that you really won't go far wrong with anything from Schumacher, TLR, Associated, Kyosho, Team C, Xray or Yokomo. Fair enough some cars are more suited to high grip astro rather than dirt or grass, but most manufacturers make a couple of variations of their 2wd cars and if you feel like racing at different venues across East Anglia they'll be a slight compromise in any choice.
As said 4wd is also increasing in popularity at NBC. The initial outlay is likely to be more, but they are easier to drive on the dirt track, I'd use the same rule of thumb as with 2wd in sticking with the bigger names in the game as your bound to be needing spares at some point in RC car ownership.
