Best one to buy

Charybdis · Oct 30, 2012

I have owned my RRC for only a little while since a work colleague went abroad to work but I love it. 1986 Vogue EFi with only 60k.

The only thing that I find frustrating is that while I can get NOS and genuine parts for ANY part on my S2A by mail order, parts for the RR are a lot more difficult to come by - have yet to get hold of replacement lower tailgate, driver's door bottom rail. Bits sometimes come up on eBay but they are usually in a worse state than the ones I want to replace.

What happened to the OP?

Anyway, my 2P worth.

I must have chosen fortunately as, apart from tyres, brakes and servicing, over the last 3+ years, I haven't had to pay out anything extra on either of my two L322s - TD6 and V8 petrol - (except for a rear compressor on my TD6 as it was taking too long: £100.)

It is the best car I have ever had and I will never have any other. I may upgrade to a 4.4 TDV8 in time, but I love the original L322 style, not too fussed about the 2006 facelift and quite like the 2010 front.

Incidentally am having to sell the TD6 (in full working condition) as I will be working abroad for a while, so pm me if you are interested in a fault-free RR with 97,000 miles. it's never towed, is in good condition and has had an easy life.

Where did you get a compressor for £100? They are nearer £300, even an overhaul kit is £168.
Sounds like a dealers sales pitch to me

bought it off another forum member so it wasn't brand new but has worked faultlessly since.

:5bredface:

Have just checked the receipt and it was £150 - my bad!! (Alzheimer's approaching!)

2.0_hippo · Oct 31, 2012

why did the forum member sell it in the first place ?

dolphinboy · Nov 3, 2012

NOt sure, think he had a whole new EAS system as part of a warranty claim, but his original was still working
