As the title implies, looks like I maybe purchasing a L322 and leaving the P38 forums. Not sure whether to trade my P38 in or Sell it private. I dont really wanna get rid of it to be honest. Its been my hobby for over 3 years its almost brand new. All new EAS bags, new shockers, new Vented/slotted discs+pads, new fuse box. *Sigh* what does one do.....

Anyhow gunna take the L322 out for a Test drive tomorrow.

Thanks for the interest 33Chinacars. If I sold it privately I'd be looking for more than 12k.

sounds like you guys need to "get a room" before some moderator comes along and moves this thread to the "for sale" section ;)

Well I didnt even drive it, it was a shocker. Had an olympic pool size Leak coming from the transmission. Quite alot of the fittings were startng to rust and the rear bumper was scratched very badly.

Very Dissapointed......

You're better off with a P38 anyways

Remember L322 problem = 8.47 times cost of 38A problem.

ESPECIALLY transmission, although if a diesel it is a GM trans AFAIK from recent posts.

I must admit though, it was bloody magnificent inside. I am gutted to think someone would let such a wonderful vehicle go downhill.

*On another note, I'm not sure whats going on with my P38, I reported a few weeks back in another thread that my fuel consumption was dropping after using 98 octane. Well bugger me, after another week of peak hour city driving the damm thing has dropped again, this time from 16.1 L per 100k too 15.3L per 100k. Go the 98!!!

It senses your wandering eye ..... and is drawing you back in to its evil clutches, by hypnotising you with impressive milage figures.

Aussie - stay with the devil you know. After 7-8 years I still think the L322 looks like a hippo, although the interior I agree is very nice.

The L320 RRS on the other hand is sex on wheels ;). I am constantly tempted, but then I ask myself would I actually take it offroad. The answer is still "probably not" 'coz it's so pretty :D
