Fuel economy doesn't worry me. Only doing around 6,000 miles a year in it. Soundtrack is well worth it.

Just out of curiosity, what is the reputation of the naturally aspirated 4.4 Jag V8 petrol engine? Other posts have said that this, with the 4.2 SC, are the most reliable engines of them all.. Less common and comes with a burble...

That is one of the reasons why I love the cars between 05 - 09. Styling is amazing. For me personally, the 09 facelift gave it a glitzy look that I am not particulary fond of. The digital display makes it more modern which turns me off... I love the analog feel of the earlier 322s.

The market here is different. 4.4 TDV8s seem to demand a considerably higher premium. I would be looking at at least 16,000 EUR for a 165,000 km+ car.

No, sir I am based in Vorarlberg, Western Austria. No kangeroos here, my man. Not many Rangies either... Sadly. Look for the oil spill, you'll see me.

Thanks for the response. 205,000 miles, 330,000 km. I would be buying it with the expectation of having to sink 4,000 EUR into it over the next 6 months or so. It will not be my only car. Only planning to do 4 - 6k miles per year in it... Not sure if I am insane or not by considering one. I...

Afternoon, everyone! I am new to the forum. I am in the market for an L322 and have shortlisted it down to 2. Option one has 121,000 miles, 4.4 V8 BMW 2003. 9.500 EUR. Option two has 205,000 miles from the 3.6 TDV8. 5,000 EUR. Both from dealers and both have solid service history. From my...

Hello, mate. I am also based in Austria and looking to import an L322. I see you are in IBK?
