Hello everybody!! I'm totally new with rangerovers.. Right now looking for one of them,thinking about p38 around 2000.. Who can tell me what's the difference between 2.5tds and 2.5dse.. ? And how about the gear box? I prefer MT,but it's hard to find one,what about the automatic transmission, is it reliable?

TDS is basic farmers model DSE is special electric, comes with various extra functions. Trip computer, air con,.sun roof, better radio, electric seats, heated seats, sat nav stuff like that depending on build spec. If you are looking for one 2000 or so it will be a DHSE. Gearboxes are like anything else well serviced ok, neglected or a lot of towing can give problems.

Is it possible that p38 2001 doesn't have air suspension?
 
I own a P38, 1998 model & it's just gone over 20k on the clock !! It's in remarkable condition & as the mechanic ( who gave it it's first service whilst it's been in my possession ) stated that it is the finest cared for motor he has seen. I have owned Land Rovers for over 30 years & he has serviced all of 'em. All models except a series 1 !!
I have taken on the role of Yorks Rep for the Range Rover Register so any body wanting to obtain any details on joining, get in touch by all means or for details of where to obtain a similar vehicle.
Regards, STEVE BUTTERWORTH

only if some idiot has removed it mate.

If its on coils, I would read that as someone who is too tight to spend the money on it to look after it properly. Walk away. There are plenty of others.

Maybe u know where I can look for one? Couse autoscout24 and mobile.de doesn't give anything good :(
 
ebay mate.

I bought one last night for £800 with a long MOT, ok its got a few issues but nothing major.
Manual, 170,000 miles but still on air and a stack of receipts for work done.

maybe try and pick up a lhd one over here if they are the right money?
 
alternatively, if it is on coils but has otherwise been looked after. ask if the EAS components are still there. The pumps and valve block etc. If so, relatively easy work to reinstate it.
