Thread: L322 madness

I'm biased and slightly mad ..... Buy one - doesn't have to be that one , that is a very nice looking vehicle tho .

Or , do what I did - buy a P38 to 'practice' on if you like it upgrade to the l322 , a P38 will be cheap , mostly because the general public is terrified of them !

I am perfectly happy with my old banger , I've done a couple of preventative maintenance things , which as the other chaps have already hinted at the areas of concern on an L322 .

You are already ahead of the game - you are in the trade , use the skills to your advantage .

Good luck !

She's not presenting. She is a lady - bowing and curtseying to her many admirers.

Looks great all clean and shiny. it's almost a shame to hit the muddy trails.

The lineup of taxi drivers at Tullamarine Airport who saw this unseemly display weren't admiring so much as laughing uncontrollably, but maybe they were just dazzled by her beauty...

Here's that promise inside shot, OP. As Grumbles says, feels much more spacious than the grey interior:

Thanks for the effort in posting an interior pic Strangerover.

That is a stunning and desirable interior.

Yes, LR did a great job designing the L322. Not bad for a 13-y-o car, it still holds up well against the competition. The new Rangies, both Sport and FF, are however absolutely magnificent. It'll be a long time before I get my hands on one though, they're a bit dear for my pocket. I plan on enjoying this one for many years.

That's the interior I wanted but at the time with 2 kids and 3 dogs using it I was told 'No'...

There's a lot to be said for vinyl seats and a rubber floor that can be hosed out. Why don't these things come with a free Defender?

L322s are surprisingly easy to keep clean. I have the parchment interior, which I regularly wipe over with baby wipes.

I keep a brush in the car to keep the floor and mats tidy.

However, my off road use is mainly beach driving.
