The classic Range Rover is still my favorite, specially the 4 door version, but the P38 is such an underrated little gem of a truck. The most overlooked RR !

The P38 range rover is an absolutely amazing old tool. Not fast but that doesn't matter. Completely comfortable and fairly reliable. Great car

Whatever you do, dont ever sell that car.....That thing is absolutely beautiful!

I had a 2002 dark green p38 with dark green carpets and dark green threading on the seats. I miss Green Bean SO much and I'd do anything to drive it again. Such underrated but beautiful cars. Definitely in my top 3 and looking to buy another.

Took the plunge and bought a 2001 4.0 HSE on eBay sight unseen after watching this. Super comfortable for long journeys, easy to drive around town, carries heavy loads with ease, and is a fully functioning off-roader. Did a full service, changed out the rear discs and calipers and put a couple of thousand trouble free miles on touring around the UK. To do list when I purchased it included replacing a rear door handle, fixing the passenger door electric window, regassing the aircon, and fixing the headlining. All relatively easy fixes.

They are becoming more and more rare but clean good examples are becoming very plentiful. Prices are still decent. I want one for nostalgia sake, but also they make a really good off road/overland vehicle. I’m looking to purchase one for cross country travel here in the states. This will be the vehicle I take on camping trips and to explore the country. I also have an early 90s accord coupe. I’m kinda building a dream garage of 90s yuppie vehicles. Wanting to also add an E36 convertible and Mercedes SL R129. I’d have my ideal 90s garage.

Brilliant review and buying guide. Tempted to get one! Good job 👏

Love this car! Always have. A real classic.

We've had a p38 4.6 for the past 15 years now at 175k miles lovely cars they are indeed special until they brake then you want to torch them but once fixed you fall in love with them again and rinse and repeat

A good honest non biased review. Good to see.

Great content keep it up 💯💪

I just bought a 98 4.0 SE and absolutely love it. It's like a light blue, almost cyan colour with original bull bar. One owner from new also. However air suspension has been taken out and replaced with new coils and shock absorbers. Would have loved the novelty of the air suspension but I guess one less thing to break! Great video and even better car. Greetings from an irish man in Western Australia

I’ve just bought this exact car, picking it up this Saturday

That paint is just beautiful!

Beautiful car love the colour and the specification .

I'm no.63... 😊 excellent review's. Hello from Tipperary Ireland.

Miss mine every day. I had one as a daily driver a few years back and sold it due to engine issues... got it with 91k miles 2000 4.6 hse it had a lot of dumb problems but never had a car that nice that could handle the way it did.... Original EAS worked like a DREAM... Dark green with black leather interior.

Gorgeous colour and spec! I've just bought a Dse one on a punt and will see how it goes

Very pretty P38! I must say that I like the color combination very much. I have bought a project P38, here in Norway. 96 model, 2.5 D manual transmission! And it has probably accumulated most of the flaws and shortcomings ... I think a previous owner has had more than enough of the air suspension ... Everything seems to have been torn out and thrown away! Now goes on normal springs!

beautiful color combination

Roars like a beast!!!!

Hi bud, I have a late P38 D HSE a d I love it, I've spent a lot on it but I'm not bothered really, I've replaced the headlining on mine myself it can be done if you are patient, I'm in the process now of changing all the brakes and flexi hoses for uprated ones, I've noticed yours doesn't have headlight wipers and I'm sure it should have, anyway let's have more videos on it please. And love Barney 👍

It looks great.

I have 3 P38's including a limited edition "Borrego" yellow one. I don't have a flat coat Retriever but would love to have one! Barney looks a handsome chap!

Great feeling with good comment... You have a very nice configurated one... Enjoy it!

Man I love the p38. I intend to get one and the 2007 RR Sport.

Great stuff! I wish mine was as clean as that! lol

Cool! I've got one and it's one of the coolest cars ever!

One of my most memorable cars, never driven one before i test drove a 2002 model 4.6 HSE, that was back in 2004 still under warranty with 19k km on the clock it was literally brand new, when i jumped in the driver seat and moved the ship forward i could hear Jean Sibelius: Finlandia , I stopped and told the salesman lets do the paperwork. never felt anything like that again. however the reliability over the course of next 25k km was just too much to handle. and the warranty was over so i had to let it go for 9k GBP back in 2007. I do miss it though.

Would be great if you do another video about the good and the bad things about Range Rover

Wow, this is really nice!

I’ve just seen this car near me and hoping it’s for sale, was there any particular reason you sold it? It’s still in a beautiful condition

Lovely...keep hold of it....was that a Zil in the background?

I’ve got two Range Rover p38 one 4.0 and one 4.6 i definitely recommend taking out the centre box it makes them sound really really good

And 3 years later I find I have totally by accident followed your example and about 2 weeks ago also bought a 2001 RR P38 Bordeaux Limited Edition. But the colour is 'Alveston Red' not 'Bordeaux red'. (excuse my OCD). But totally agree with everything you said about the car and what it represents. The interior on mine was like a builders shed ..... But its a 'Project'. he says ....

Keep going with these videos bro! Currently driving an x-trail t30 and got a chance to run a p38 as a stopgap for a month till I can afford a t31 x-trail should I do it?

Looking at buying one this week, same colour, same engine but manual

Gotta do more Range Rover videos 🔥🔥🔥👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

Love the p38 Range Rover

Lovely example

And Barny modeled it so well 😄

Hi ,lovely motor ,have you done anything to headlamps ???

Yeah she did and dashboards in level one and it would look nice in leather dashboard and set it off very good as well that’s my opinion I love even the old classic Range Rover yeah but really nice☺️😊👍

Just saw Jeremy Clarkson's latest TV series on farming. Episode 3 on setting up his shop. We saw this model RR ploughing through deep mud on several occasions, each time successfully.

If you didn't know, the headliner drops because of a water leak in rubber the sunroof surround. Put some sealant on the gap you may find there.

Jeremy Clarkson still has a black P38A in Vogue SE trim

Just a quick question please Do all P38s have rear blower/fan between front seats or its only specific models Is it easy to get a spare key programmed? Os there a tool i can buy for this and other electric stuff. Ive got a cousin who is an auto electrician Thanks

Beautiful, I have one..

I've. Just replaced an air bag & compressor valve block on my friends P38 & it is an easy fix & only cost £120 using new & used part's. Plus the Range Rover is Favoured by the Royal Family & is very good at Wofting.

4.6 and LPG gives you the best of both worlds.

How do you keep all your cars in running order as if you leave cars to stand for a long time they can get knackered/get problems?

Great video, well done 👍 f

Quick correction there Sam, the tailgate and a couple of other panels are made of steel and unfortunately are prone to a bit of rust. Nice vid and nice car. 👍

P38's are one of the best Land Rovers with their non-rotting chassis, their refined ride and their classy looks.

Whats the colour code for the car? Or the exact name of the paint I love it Thanks in advance

Very nice colour the Bordeaux I have the old bmw X5 v8 I’d like to find one of these old Range Rover though

A tuned diesel is better than the 4.0 and is very reliable as long as long as you keep the cooling system in top condition. I personally run an all aluminium v8 rad on mine as the diesel rad is quite inefficient having both inlet and outlet at the top seperated by a small plastic fin to try and guide the coolant around the rad. The v8 rad has them on opposite corners. Simply plum the lower hose back to the top where it os on the diesel engine.

you should become the new host of wheeler dealers ;p. .. id watch that ;)

Could someone please tell me what kind of front bumper that is? The normal ones with the fog lights are kind of ugly, but this one looks extremely good.

Great video. I agree about range rovers losing something after they stopped making p38s. In fact when it came time to upgrade my old high mileage 97 DSE auto I tested range rover sport, l322 and even discovery 3s ( I considered these to be logical upgrades) I was disappointed in all of them. I then decided to buy a better newer p38 instead. Much nicer to drive and the driving position is much better. I ended up with a 2000 DSE auto full service history and 110k miles for £1600. They are underpowered that is true .

I have an Epsom Green 2001 P38 one but mine doesn’t have the awesome color match interior and piping in the seats.

thirsty and slow. You'd have to have rose tinted glasses on to want one. L322 with 5.0 petrol lovely, thirsty but fast. My L322 diesel was nice but next one will have a petrol. It does have a gorgeous colour.

P38 best looking Range Rover by far, I may be biased because I own one. Easy enough to fix the pixel issue on the HEVAC unit, I'm sure there will be tutorials on KZfaq, zebra connector can be had from flea bay.

very strong 💪💪💪💪

Imo these are the last reliable range rovers. L322 onwards had so many problems and forever breaking down and air suspension problems id have a P38 and the classic anyway

Had a manual 2.5 Dse it was horrendously slow than bought a l322 td6 in 2003 that was horrendously unreliable Now have an sdv8 vogue se it’s absolutely fantastic

They really have aged so well.

I just bought a 2000 HSE from my friend who was going to donate it as a tax write off. It would have surely been sent to scrap. I paid $600 for it, no lie! My Instagram is ordinaryaverageguygarage and you can see pics of it there. I changed 3 spark plug wires, changed the oil, put in a new heated windshield, and detailed it inside and out. I’m totally in love with it. The sprag clutch has failed in the transmission, but you start out in 1st and manually shift to D and it drives great. That’s next on the list. Your’s is absolutely stunning! Keep up the P38 videos.

I love the air suspension, but my car was lopsided. They said "airbags need new, pump need new, new height sensors needed" I Solved by spending $0 using EAS suite on a Laptop. Cut 16 small steel pipes to 3 specific lengths for the 3 heights and placed inside bump stops with suspension raised. Drop car down and it'l sit on the pipes. Then EAS gave me readouts of current height. I replaced the height readouts with the new findings. Repeated for all 3 heights. Car now sits level and at the heights I set. So I replaced nothing!

Nice video watching from Australia... These are worth quite a lot over here but notorious for reliability ☹️

can you find parts and make repairs oneself for the commonly known electrical and mechanical gremlins?

this for sale in leeds 8.995 last week im going to check again in a minute .

I only saw this in 2023 and I wonder how do I get this. I am in South Africa. I collect classic cars

Help me save my RHD P38 4.6 HSE.. I’m Stuart. I can’t get the bonnet open - passenger side releases but the driver side.won’t. Can you help???

Barney is a GOOD BOY too.

I drive the exact same car, but with off road wheels and a 3” lift

They fixed a few issues that the classic had but somehow lost the unique iconic magic to blandness. ☹️

Do all p38s have air suspension? How about electric seats

Ah now in fairness the 4.6 v8 is a different beast altogether 😂. The p38 was developed as the the 38A (project pegasus). The manual 2.5 is interesting and can be wound up and the auto feels good off the line but is awful over 50 mph especially when overtaking. And defo get yourself an EAS kicker 👍

My dad had one in mint condition with a full reconditioned engine but it got burnt out in January to buy one in that condition it will cost £5k upwards

Needs front bags

lol dog just looking at you like dude i could not give a shit now let me sleep :D

Fucking hell, and a Century on the drive…!

Me watching this video: Oh yeah, that is one nice Range Rover. Nice color! The finish is- WHAT THE SHIT, IS THAT A TOYOTA CENTURY V12?

Do they all have air suspension?

I see you have put her on ebay

Wrong not all the panels are made of aluminum, the rear quarter panel isn’t.

We have created a Range Rover P38 group on FaceBook, WHAT another one i hear you say? Well we set out to try and do something a little different and that is to do things right.! Gone are the wannabe armchair engineers and the trolls that seem to hinder most groups and in will be an admin team that consist of guys who knwo what they are on about and can navigate their way around RAVE to come up with solutions to problems. Its a very fresh group, and its very early days, but with your help we will get there, and not only are we looking for new members, we are looking for experienced guys to join the admin team and help build the group. We can be found here.... facebook.com/groups/925014894688556/

I run 2 p38s a 4.0 and a 4.6 both have been good reliable cars. The air ride is what makes the car what it is. I had a spring conversion one you may as well buy a discovery 1. Strange your one for a limited run one has no headlamp wash wipe or driving lamps.

Rubber filler strip missing from radio head unit surround.

If you have a good one its ok. If not most of them will empty your bank account fast.

Its leaning to the left..

Ohhh

always thought the p38 was the most unreliable landrover ever made and a money pit

I just don't understand the love for these things. Never have. Absolute money-pits. 😩💩

Real nr.1 runner: worst car in the world! Workshop best friend!
