    It all depends on what you need.

    7 seats, go the D3.
    Towing, both will tow just fine.
    Off Road , the D3 would be just a bit better than the L322 . Although L322 will go just about anywhere with the right tyres.
    More accessories for the D3 I think.
    Around town & on the open road. Nothing beats L322. Sheer road presents the L322 wins hands down.
    You will probable find a low mileage L322 than a D3.
    Full service history is a must no matter what you decide.
    Find the best vehicle within your budget. Don't think you will be sorry either way.

    I'd go L322 although I'm biased . Got a L322 TD6 with the dodgy auto. Even so I love it to bits.

    OFF ROAD ? This one seems to be keeping up with the D3s and the drivers is doing it in comfort LOL

    Didn’t say that the L322 couldn’t go off road. Just that the D3 might be a little bit better .
    And agree that the L322 would do it in far more comfort .

    D3 or L322 ? What a dilemma!

    I’ve done quite a bit of beach work in the L322. Never been stuck yet.

    On Moreton recently I came across a D4 owner who was disgracing the brand by getting out of the blue lagoon sandy car park look much more difficult than it was, ie it wasn’t difficult. He didn’t want advice about driving his car calmly with appropriate settings. Revving the guts out of it and spinning the wheels was apparently a much better way.

    I had a similar experience with a new DS owner being helped by an equally hapless prado owner on a nearby beach.

    So some knowledge with these cars does help.
