That's pretty much it.
A Classic with rot and cheap to fix.
A P38 with electrical phenomena
A sporty thingy
An very expensive thingy
That's yer choices.
I don't want to start an argument but............. I've had two RR Classics long ago, a V8 that never quite managed 11mpg and then one with an old Perkins diesel out of a Massey Harris combine harvester. That was quarter of a century ago and I'm getting the urge to return to the World's finest driving (occasionally, if you're lucky?) position. Is there a 'best buy' in Range Rovers? Or is every damn one a perfect example of allowing your heart to rule your head - and empty your wallet?
They are fine if you want to keep them in a warm dry garage and polish them. If you want to actually use them they are all crap.
So true. I've had all sorts of high marques but I have never considered addinga garage to the house, until I bought the L322
Mates L322 fills with water if he takes it out in the rain, never mind wading
Spent hours tracking the source, so far without success. Funny, all the British cars I have ever owned leaked including my Transit
You should consider getting a nondescript blue P38. The rain knows to stay on the outside. J
I wish
You should consider getting a nondescript blue P38. The rain knows to stay on the outside. Just avoid pheasants. They have cost me the thick end of £200 so far this year in damaged parts.
But as it is British Made, the old adage remains true. If there is no oil under it, there is no oil in it. The oil slick on my drive is getting so big I have had BP request drilling rights.

Oops , read that twice and still saw 'just avoid peasants'. Thought to myself 'good grief man I Know THAT!'. Was a little confused when I realised it was pheasants I was to avoid. :hysterically_laughi
Yours has aspirations of a indoor swimming pool I take it?
Oh there is no point in avoiding peasants. Darwinism would make them get out of the way of the 2.5 ton block of steel. Although I imagine they'd do more damage than a pheasant.
My boss pulled up in his brand new BMW and I couldn't help admiring it. "Nice car", I said as he got out.
"Well," he said, noticing my admiring look, "if you work hard, put the effort and the hours in, I will have an even better one next year."
G~
EDIT: This is a quote. I haven't had a boss for years.

P38's and L322's leak just as much with French rain as they do with English or even Welsh rainLol.......I totally get you. But it does rain 355 days of the year in Britain. So how do you know all the other vehicles off this island don't actually leak unless you bring them here to test. (It hardly bloody rains anywhere else, so if there is problems you wouldn't know)
Neither does mine !Mine doesn't leak! That's probably just buggered it ...
Hahahaha, back on here again today to browse the many posts on water ingress. (Blue P38)You should consider getting a nondescript blue P38. The rain knows to stay on the outside. Just avoid pheasants. They have cost me the thick end of £200 so far this year in damaged parts.

Impressive thread resurrection.We have more rain than Britain. 1800 mm here, about 5000 a year in some places... But we do love our Rangies. I am still dreaming of having the 2 door window lick rubbers made new, I'd already have 50 clients in my country.
PS mine doesn't fit in your categories.. it is a 1983 2 door 200tdi
