I'd stIck with the L322 you already have, if you're happy with it. For the simple reason that you know the car inside out, you know its condition and you've invested time and money so you know what jobs have been done. That's why I am keeping my L322 TD6; having done so much to it (including new gearbox, turbo, air suspension) I should be able to cross those jobs off now for a good few years. It's in great nick now, and fully rustproofed every year. Buying a new car, I'd be in unknown territory and might end up doing all of that again.

In my opinion, the money you need to buy a new one will be the money you need to fully maintain your l322 for at least another 7/8 years. In addition the td6 it's the best in-line 6 ever made

Thanks for all the great content, learnt a load of stuff and enjoyed watching your adventures. Happy Christmas mate. Good luck with the next RR purchase.

Stick with the Td6 L322, had mine just over a year now, service it regularly and deal with any issues rather than leaving them to fester, use money to make more money, I know the newer ones look tempting, thats why so many people are in trouble, dont join them, you work too hard to slip up now, happy holidays to all...

Stick with the one you have better the devil you know? well at least wait a while you will might get one for next to nowt and the L322 will become a classic soon they are still the best one to buy get a one in top notch nick and keep it. Merry Christmas. and well done love the channel.

Hi pal just come across your channel great content look forward to whats to come just subscribed good luck

With your l332 I had same problem with mine I put a new battery and starter motor been fine since 😊

Iv got my 4.2sc l322 and it’s great but still have my td6 for work, deffo keep with l322 and pre keyless entry unless you want thousands on insurance. My td6 also had the same issue, ideally need to take the switch out from below the barrel and give them a proper clean, or buy a new switch, about £30-50 depending on where you go for it. L405 won’t be cheap to put right and a mechanic I know was saying he’s seeing corrosion on them, (steel/ Ali parts and body) and that won’t be as easy to patch up as a full steel car like the l322. TD6 is a cracking car. I love my 4.2 for long drives etc but nothing wrong with a td6 as a daily car.

Td6 owner here and I wouldn’t touch a l405 with a barge pole 😂😂😂 ask yourself this why are the l405s are plummeting in price because there utter shite the l322 isn’t dropping in price much at all so that tells you something a lot of people are selling the l405 and buying l322s because cheaper road tax cheaper insurance and harder to steel plus the theifs are just not interested I would never sell my l322 I’ve spent fortune on it and it runs really nice so why sell it 🤷‍♂️ if yours runs good and you like it why sell it just to get a newer one that will loose fortunes in another 6 months 🤦‍♂️ stick to your l322 it owes you nothing and the engine will last for ever if you look after it could you say the same about the l405 I doubt it 🤣 plus the l322 is slowly becoming modern classic status look at all the l322 enthusiast channels compared to the l405 🤔 I’m 53 now and mine is going to be my last daily driver I ever buy because I’m not stupid 😉 so my advice is keep your l322 save your money for more important things in life trust me you not regret it 👍

Stick with an L322 either yours or a late 4.4 TDV8! The L405 is a better car but the L322 is the better Range Rover! It’s as comfortable in the rough stuff as it is sat polished on your driveway! True workhorse the L322.

have a watch at car uk on youtube, and geoff buys cars. its to do with keyless entry and keyless start why there getting nicked , insurance companies are increasing the prices, (but it sees to be the newer range rovers that are the problem not the p38 or l322) the big fire at the airport didn't help.. the other day i was reading about a £350,000 rolls royce that got nicked in under 30 seconds. stick with what youve got and give it a refresh and an update, go for the latest touch screen stereo, stainless steel exhaust, refurbish the wheels, xenon lights,give it a big service etc etc.bring it up to a modern day vehicle plenty of aftermarket bits around for them these days.

The one you have will hold it's price because of tax. From 06 to 12 it's extortionate. As you said, lots are from finance companies so wait a little longer and you'll be able to choose what car you want rather than what fits a budget. My td6 will be insured middle of January so it'll be nice to see if it lasts😂

accasionally mine doe,s the same but try cleaning & tightening the positivve red where it meets the charging nut engine side they tend to vibrate loose 13mm I think it works for me every time & a good charge best of luck

My wife had a starting problem just like that on a Toyota It was the switch on the ignition, where the key tip goes into, the extra pressure of the starter key turn had split the switch center and it was opening up the split rather than turn the switch onto the starter circuit I’d stick with what you know 🤔

Same to you and yours. I'm also looking at RR Sport similar money but much lower mileages.

That's why I stay to my 3.0 was offered 3.6 turbo problems etc

You can buy a bypass for this and you resolve this problem

just to add I have just purchased 06 4.2 sc with 86k pick it up in january looking forward too

Purchased an L405 3 years ago, 42k miles 4.4 v8 diesel been looked after. Expect 3-6k a year maintaince on general stuff just breaking etc Tyres obviously £200 ish and I drive it a lot so put around 150-200 a week in fuel. Let’s saying £600 conservatively fuel a month 6-7k per year fuel then tax then repairs cost you roughly £12k-£15k a year easily to run one ! Be prepared for this and you cannot skimp on maintenance for any guys out there wanting to buy one potentially. I’ must be mad because I have 2 😂

Good video, just wondering what my L322 is worth, 2011, 4.4 TDV8, 137k miles. lots of history, MOT October. Merry Christmas, keep the vids coming.

Have a look at the auctions.

Prices are tumbling as the diesels are non ULEZ compliant and combined with insurance costs in London - so people in this location are bailing out. Many are running these on a shoe string budget and so insurance is pricing another demographic out… Autobiography with the rear air con on L405 are prone to leaking and the pipes run down the sills and over the rear subframe and the pipes can rust…to replace is expensive….

I've got a 2008 L322 TDV8 3.6 - IMO it was the sweet spot. OK - you have problems but I spent £6500 on the car and having replaced turbos, rear prop shaft and alternator, and air tank - I'm in it for £12k - but it's done 100k miles. I've already done gearbox oil and diffs and transfer box and service. So should be solid for another 50-60k miles. Spend 10-12k on anything - you still have all the same potential issues

L405 4.4 2017 onwards cheaper road tax and plenty of power, if your budget allows. I have owned many Range Rovers being in the trade, my advice is always buy the best spec and a car thats not had multiple owners two or three maximum . Also buy a car with a good detailed service history. Cheap Range Rovers with 10 owners, patchy history are generally money pits ! L322 vs L405 I have had both and worked both pulling trailers etc, got to say loved both, though the L405 in my opinion is a nicer more refined drive.

have a good one mate

Hi mate ive had both, a 2006 L322 supercharged 4.2 an a 2011 5.0 then went 2017 5.0 autobiography. I personally loved em all but a last L322 is a much better bet than a first L405 . Simply because the problems has been addressed a the technology fitted isn’t that old . Having said that the L405 was wonderful an bloody quick, all the toys you ever need an about 30 toys you will never use on a day to day .

Keep what you have 👍 put the money into your business.

All the diesel versions are gutless unless you get a 4.4 td v8, spec level depends on your pocket but the 2018 onward cars L405 last facelift with laser headlights are getting stolen , older cars as safe as anything else 😊

Mate, I’ve got a 2011 5.0 L322. I think the L322 is a better looking car, the 405 is in some ways better, but looks like a jelly mould. You do loads of mileage and tow so the 4.4 with the Turbo Drain mod is a belter. I’m only in Frodsham, if you want a blast in mine give me a shout.

Just get a ghost immobiliser put on it if you get one that will bring insurance down but also l322 better the devil you know

Stick with the L322 mate insurance is going to keep going up on the L405's to easy to nick.

Get L322 facelift mate. They feel like a different car. Tdv8 4.4

lot of scams out there to mate

i think you just answered your own question..lol

Keep your l322, get some new wheels, and lose the hoodies.

Mine does same buddie just do what you do spray wd40 etc trust me keep the old girl mines done 260000 keeps going look after yah she has niggle problems keep l322 don't buy 405 etc pain arse

£695 tax and around 2k a yr to insure.. It's not worth it anymore.. Sold my 2010 L322 3 months ago best thing I've ever done..

Rather than try to choose between two models of Range Rover, why not get a reliable car from another manufacturer instead of a Range Rover? They're all beautiful vehicles but every model has so many problems it's not worth buying any of them!

Stick with the l322 insuring a newer range is stupidly expensive
