Hi team……
The P38 was not the first luxury Range Rover!!!!
Land Rover went up market with the Range Rover in the early 1980’s with the In Vogue RR!!!
Then they decided just to call it the Vogue RR….
I purchased a 1983 Nevada Gold RR one of 500 world wide!!! It was a special vehicle‘cause it was the first RR to have an automatic transmission!! 737 torque flight by Chrysler I believe!!!!
The RR had air con…. Arm rests front and rear a picnic set and a chilly bin!!!
It didn’t have electric windows…. But carpet was everywhere!!!
The P38 RR often referred as the London taxi!!!’cause it looked like a bloody London taxi!!!
The P38 in design was a brilliant idea but alas it was a bridge too far for Land Rover!!!
I know I bloody bought one 1995 HSE in Beluga Black with Saddle leather interior!!!
But everything broke on the damn car!!
And sadly enough I still own the damn thing but it’s in storage and NOT running!!!
My daily drive is a 1990 3.9 V8 automatic Range Rover with 280,889 kms on the clock!!
Re the V12 into the P38…..BMW did consider this option….
But the mota was too long for the current engine bay!!!!
To make it fit they would have needed to extend the front of the car… but this made the car look ugly and made the approach angle too low….hence effecting the off road dynamics of the P38!!!
Unfortunately the the next RR the L322 or third generation was a BMW car…. And Germans don’t build very good cars!!!
I have subscribed!!!
Kind regards

The P38 may not be the last word in refinement or build quality, but it was from an era where LR still took Autobiographies off the assembly line for hand trimming and finishing. Nowadays everything just comes off an assembly line. And the wood & trim shops are long gone since Tata took control.
Fantastic video ! Love it ! Thanks you so much !
Sorry, but so many inaccuracies in this video! For instance, gun cabinets were not standard fit in either P38 or L322 Holland & Holland Range Rovers, although they could be ordered from a third party via your dealer, but few did. Please do some research before putting these videos out!
The first nod to we can do luxury was the In Vogue classics.
Couldn’t agree more- P38… hmmmmm
Fluff me she still looks good 😉
Enjoyed this cheers
Really sorry guys- simply not true that this was the first time Range Rover was luxurious. The P38 was not a sea change- it was pretty useless with little that was better than the previous classic. The Range Rover LSE of 92-93 was true luxury, and long wheelbase… look them up- forget the P38, the L322 was the sea change…
Say no to cheap Chinese hunter wellies and say yes to Le Chameau French made wellies! Also you gotta love the L322, it’s just a great all rounder. I smile every time I get to drive mine. The 4.4 makes you smile just a tad more though.
Haven't been French made for years .
@@npet6842 ah they’ve moved it since I was selling them so. They used to make the made to measure in France. Still though a far superior product than hunter.
@@eoghanfla6343 I've not had Morrocan ones , but there are many unhappy with the quality apparently . Soles separating from heel had been mentioned often . I always use a boot rack or the wooden steps to remove the Wellington by the heal , not pulling on the sole which could separate . Good to hear from you :-)
Hunter, another company that did produce quality and then moved production abroad. Now a total waste of money and utter sh1te, I would sooner get some from Aldi.
@@darrenhaywood9260 you are 100% right. At least with Aldi you aren’t paying a premium for a name!
In fairness to le chateau I have mine 12 to 13 years now and they are still good. I used to sell one version to vets and they’d get two years full time wear but compared to cheap wellies they lasted probably 6-10 times longer with professional wear.
Theres a P38 Holland and Holland that's been sitting in a Morrisons car park close to where i live. I thought it was maybe a worker's but when i passed it the other day its now looking abandoned. Tyres are getting soft and the air suspension has started going down in the rear. Id love to know who owns it and see whay the plans are for it if any at all
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 top video!
How about doing your research beforehand instead of offering a click and paste presentation. It doesn't take a spotter to notice the smattering of flawed information provided by VBH & Co.
😘
I bought a 2012 L322 Overfinch last April and it is good fun.
Wonderful - just wish you could get reasonable insurance on them !!!
Insuring the older ones isn’t a problem at all 😂
500 quid my l322 4.4 tdv8 insurance. Im 31
I own a 96 4.0l manual, and every time i drive a post 2015 car and then go back to the so called rot box, horrible, un dependable and so forth, it's like night and day. The comfort is just superb.
This is what they were built for, not for nipping to Waitrose to get the shopping, or wannabe gangsters with a number plate saying, B0SS DAWG or CE0 1. I personally hate the Range Rover trend. They definitely attract a certain type of character. Not the type that’s particularly friendly either, they’d rather drive over you than let you pass.
That's quite a generalisation. Not all Range Rover drivers are wankers.. most maybe, but not all
I know, sorry it’s just what I keep experiencing. I wouldn’t say it otherwise. I’m sure they’re not all like it, at least not in the first few weeks of ownership anyway 😂
I think your valuation is way off.
Thanks for your comment.
Lots of fun filming this 😂
Link in description to all upcoming lots 👆🏼
SORRY, I just cannot watch her but... good luck!!
The P38 was and is a dog. Every LR specialist hates them. Horrible to work on snd ridiculously fragile. The worst car i ever owned. (The Disco 3 was the best)
Not true nowadays a P38 is a welcome change from the modern L322 L405 Evoque and discoveries.
Not a complex car by any means.
RR P38 probably the RR that caused more stress to its owner than anything else they threw together. Absolute piece of crap
They were pretty good. Did you have a bad experience?
@@project9320 the P38 suspension , software and most of the electrics were designed for a completely different kind of vehicle, they constantly failed and were replaced by components that were even less fit for purpose.
How can these unreliable rot boxes compete with the Japanese alternative?, they can’t.
Jap 4x4's rot faster than most Land rovers, well known..
