And I just did a post on that to, I think its a valid point, although most come here only when it goes wrong, never when things are fine!!

I never considered an L322 on the basis of no chassis and even more, more complicated electronics.
I've had my fair share of v8 woes, mainly thanks to a dodgy seller, but I'd rather buy another as opposed to an L322
Plus i think they look even uglier

Well I'm here to say it seems the P38 is a lot less trouble, I have a 97 and its not got a spot of rust on the chassis, yet your getting L322's with only a few years on them with rust all over, and water ingress, something is wrong!

I got the EAS working. Inordinately happy. New battery in and everything seems to work. Left it on wading height, we'll see what it looks like tomorrow.

Had a look at a 4.6 p38. Not without issues but nothing that cannot be fixed. Only issue is how much will it go for ... and how do I justify a second money pit?!

The missis made me promise when I bought the P38 that I'd get rid of one of the Alfas.

I replaced the passenger side one with a cheap flat non-electric glass. The plastic insert I bought snapped so ended up gorilla gluing the old one in place ; is still on there 15 months and few whacks later.
Erm .... I ... ahem, ...have electric mirrors on my MY March ‘95 DT
But only drivers side works! When I rolled it the pass unit got totalled, replaced with an electric one but I bought one with wrong type connector
hid it in door and put non electric glass in as above. Came off the p38 I had wrong colour bonnet/wing from. If you look in my pics one is blue other is original black abs plastic (just don’t tell anyone )

They're all electric but I doubt yours self dip or have antiglarecliquid crystal.

LOL. To be fair, one of them is just a donor car for my daily. Paid £87 on ebay for it and I've had at least £500 worth of parts off it. I might actually ring the scrappers tomorrow, it doesn't owe me anything.Best wait for the summer now as Alfa prices are well known to dip for the winter.

I think what some seem to forget is,the L322 is no longer the new kid on the block. They have been around for almost 18years.
There are some, like mine, that have been looked after all their lives. However, many, many , more have not, and people are buying them thinking 'oh I can afford a Range Rover, look how cheap they are'. They have them two days , and find out why the last owner got rid, at such a low, 'bargain', price.
The L405 is now 7 year old , won't be long until we see a lot more of them on here. That should be fun

If only it had its own prefix like the P38 and L323!

I think it's a JLR conspiracy. No prefix = no faults
