Re-joining the fold :-)

We've just a deposit down on a L322 Vogue 4.4 V8 and hopefully pick it up next weekend. Our P38 was sold just over a year ago and we've had a mix of vehicles in between but looking forward to it. It's a 2nd or even 3rd car and needs a few minor (hopefully) things sorting out. It's a 2002 in dark blue - not sure of exact shade, with cream leather.

Yummy!

Similar to mine then but mine is a 54 plate. The dark blue and cream is a beautiful combination.
All I did to mine was to add a bluetooth module from BMW, a MKvi sat nav from a BMW and a set if new mats from ebay and its fantastic.

If it hasn't done already get the gearbox oil swapped. My gbox went pop at 72k miles

How do I find out what sat nav version is in there?

[Liszt]

Have a look here

or google Mkiii to mkiv satnav

it is a straight swap for the cd based system to a dvd based system which can do all of Europe

You can find them on ebay or t'internet

I've just gone 7 years without a Range, bought a P38 a couple of days ago.
Had one brand new in 99, 13 years later I own a 98 !
Will probably only use it once a week for towing.

Here it is:



New headlamp glass fitted, lambda sensor needed and a pair of boot struts. Sub £7k!

Lovely! Right colour, right wheels. Great!

i'd agree

ref the wheels it seems you may be in the minority as i have five (20") as above, that are in very good condition but going to the scrapyard next week as nobody wants to buy them?

did not think £50 each was exactly expensive when i recall they are about £600 each from dealers?

Oslo Blue is the colour, as my freeby is the same colour.

How did you managed to get it for under £7k? What's the mileage?

It's a V8. Idiots buy the diesels, market therefore hates the V8s. Plus, don't forget the earliest L322s are a decade old now... market forces dictate they're stupidly cheap - they've been well under 10k for a long time now.

[edc]

As RL says they are out there if you look. Admittedly not many at sub £7k and it needs a few brave pills to buy a cheap one knowing it needs a couple of things sorting. I think this was the only one at sub 7 within 40 miles on AT. 150k on the clock but drives sweet as a nut. Very little history but one long owner and latest for a brief period and the previous owner addresses suggests decent enough care.

[A.J.M]

Wow, you must be either mad or have a lifetime supply of brave pills.

Any other issues with it, are you going to give it a full service and change the fluids to be safe or throw caution to the wind.

I simply couldn't MTFU enough to do it. It would take my wallet and brutally rape it, repeatedly.

[edc]

It had an oil service last month. The only other service related work to do imminently is an atf flush and change and 2 x lambda sensors to fit and job done.

[edc]

Mechanical and diagnostic check done, 2 lambdas fitted. All good to go :-)

That is a lot of Land Rover for the money. I see P38s at £5k, so you have done well

Fantastic colour. The L322 has brilliant road presence
