Hi all - back in a L322

[silverback mike]

Missed the last one so here we go again! It’s a lovely thing and great spec!

Was looking at that one and the one with plain glass online, but it seems that sold too. Looks very nice. What was the dealer like to deal with?

He was absolutely brilliant and fully recommended. Chased the history for me. 3 New tyres. And popped an MOT on it f/o/c too. I’ll definitely return. The car is an absolute peach.

That’s good to hear - they have a lot of decent looking cars and a turnover of stock which is usually a good sign. If I hadn’t spent so much on my current car I’d have been down there to buy one of the green ones.

Keep trying to justify buying the green L405😆

I’ll definitely return in a few years for a newer model.
Mark is a decent bloke.

Looks great, hope it serves you well.

Who was the dealer? Pictures look familiar from my hours at looking at these things!

Thanks - dealer was (is) Eaton Cars of Derby. Really good and I’ll buy from them again.

Yes, he's a nice guy and I am reluctant to say anything negative because he treated us well during the sales process, but certain pre-sales promises were not honoured and the warranty provided was worthless given that it wouldn't cover major components over 10 years old (which all L322's are).

People could also perhaps do a bit of due diligence on his past history too.

Just be careful if you’ve had three new tyres. If the fourth is pretty recent with decent tread, you should be ok but you should change all four at once.

Also if the mileage is in the 70-80k range, it’s worth thinking about getting the gearbox oil changed.

Exactly the L322 I would want.

I love those wheels & am sure someone at JLR is an SD1 fan.

Thanks - and thought I recognised the design from an SD1!!
