You could always stick a pin in the gauge just after normal to stop it going to "too hot" 
What did you do with your Range Rover today

Sounds like a dodgy sender unit switch to me mate and or a dodgy thermostat. Maybe try changing them both and give the coolant a good flush out too and see what occurs. I have read they can suffer from blocked hoses causing flow/overheating issues.

It sits infront of the internal temp sensor and blows the ambient air on it, help to judge the air aye!

i don't have overheating issues
but its normal for the gauge to sit in the middle and not move over a large temp range

is the battery good? why will it suddenly start just because your commute is shorter?

Very good, you err all week? The drive has 2 perfectly usable cars and a defenderer drive ornament. Adding a RR at this point will would be silly. Should my job change I’ll prolly buy one. So for now I’m happy being jealous

range rovers need a pressure gauge in the dash to show pressure in the tank

Have you access to a spare pod to try???

There seems to be a sudden purge of P38's coming to market these last few weeks which i have been actively watching and studying. Most are either worn out crap or over priced tarted up crap too with dealers not wanting to answer simple questions about them which just tells me they are indeed TROUBLE with high asking prices. LOL.
And then there are the really high asking prices ones too £12000 upwards and to £25000!!!!!! Mental.

its very common for modern cars to have a temp gauge that only shows cold normal and "oh ****", car manufacturers dont want customers to keep coming back ever time the gauge moves a fraction over normal, my citron van didnt even have a gauge just a red light to say when you were in the crap

His gauge is behaving normal, they are all like that, and if you try another dash pod it can bugger up the mileage as it is stored in the Becm and the dash and if they dont match it will go to the highest mileage ask me how i know
