- 2010 / 60 Rangerover L322 3.6 TDV8 Vogue - Full-Fat Range Rover with superb high specification and FSH
Few cars have the sheer road presence of a Range Rover Vogue. Our 2010 TDV8 Vogue stands tall and dwarfs other road users. It is finished in metallic Ipanema silver with stunning 19" alloy wheels and aftermarket side steps that give the car real road presence. As you can see the car looks superb with classic Rangerover lines and a muscular body which is complimented by the attractive colour combination. Vogues come with front and rear parking sensors as well as a reversing camera (very useful during tight manoeuvres). This particular car has been my own personal vehicle since January and is registered in my name, and is in daily use.
This is a car which glides along with limo-like ride quality, yet it also has Rangerovers superb terrain response system which allows you to adjust the cars ride height and 4 wheel drive system to best suit the terrain. Power comes courtesy of the 268bhp, 3.6 litreTDV8 turbo-diesel powerplant which offers the power and refinement this car deserves along with reasonably good (we averaged 30mpg) fuel economy. Thie headline figure for me with this engine is the colossal 640 n/m of torque - more than many supercars and transmits its power via a slick 6 speed ZF automatic gearbox to all 4 wheels (permanent 4 wheel drive).
There is no denying that this is a big car - Not only does it look large and imposing, it feels large and imposing when you are behind the wheel. You sit high with a commanding view of the road - Even drivers of large MPV's and other 4x4s have to look up to the Range Rover driver. The experience is one of the ultimate in luxury - From your elevated position, looking down on the world you can, quite rightly, feel isolated in the double-glazed Range Rover. The seats are generously proportioned and superbly comfortable. Both front and rear seats have electric heating and the front seats benefit from electric memory adjustment to ensure you have the perfect driving position. Stepping up into the interior of the Range Rover is like stepping into a different world. As you would expect the ride quality is in a class of its own and whole car feels very smooth and refined. Few cars are as comfortable and relaxing to drive as a Range Rover and with the cruise control set to 70 you could happily cover continents in this car.
In keeping with its position as a top-end, luxury car, our Range Rover has an extraordinary specification. It feels more like a Bentley to drive than it does a typical 4x4. The car glides over road imperfections with ease, and isolates you from the outside world - reminding you that you're piloting something rather special. It is of course still a big car but thanks to excellent visibility it is much easier to drive than you might expect.
It would take all day to reel off a list of luxuries that are fitted to this RangeRover - So easier to say imagine it has absolutely everything you could imagine in a luxury car, plus the following extras you may not have thought of;
✅ TV screen with digital tuner
✅ Heated front and rear seats
✅ Double-glazed windows
✅ Stitched leather interior - The highest quality black hide.
✅ Harmon and Kardon hi-fi upgrade - One of the best in-car audio experiences you will find anywhere
✅ DAB stereo
✅ Bluetooth telephone system
✅ Invery Bluetooth music streaming adapter - works through the standard iphone connection.
✅ Keyless-go (We have 2x remote keys)
✅ Full set of rubber floor mts including boot-liner (In fact we have 2 sets of mats)
✅ Rear parking camera plus front and rear parking sensors
✅ Adjustable air-ride suspension with selectable ride height and Landrovers terrain response system

Had my 3 litre 21 years now since new 235k all done by me , absolute top notch car . I will never sell it 👍🏻
Got a 2008 tdv8 3.6. Had it five years. Tow twin axle caravan. Hardly notice it's behind. Driven all models of rr, but as you say , the l322 tdv8 is the cream. This car has been virtually fault free. Keep them regularly maintained and serviced, neglect, that's where a lot of these lovely vehicles are unwillingly forced to decline rapidly. They Need TLC .
Totally agree with all your comments 100%
Been a LR freak for 40 years. Had Off Road driving school in Cornwall, nothing I have not driven.
Retired now, guess what : L322 3.6 TDV8.
Buckingham Blue, cream Ox interior. I intend to make if my ever car. One owner from new, 108k. Now two years later 117k. My garage tells me " you only use it once a week to go to town and back " . Ave 100 miles a week, but still service every 3 months. Only fault is dreaded rear wiper, oh and some bubbling on rear arches. Must be 6th or 7th RR and This modern with the 3.6, 270 bhp, is without doubt the BEST.
The Trick : regular service, keep eye underneath for rust and have a secret Pot of cash for bills, they Will come. Let's face it, she was £130k back in 2009.
Hey, would you Mind explaining why you find the 3.6 TDV8 best? I`m currently looking for a L323. First i drove was the 3.6 TDV8 and i Had the Feeling that IT might be a bit weak for the 2.7 tons. So i`m looking for a 4.4 TDV8 now but haven`t tested one yet.
I'm with you. Done 138k miles in my 2010 3.6, 100k by me. It's been great and a is a keeper.
Good review, I have a 2007 TDV8,in green, same as Harry Metcalfe's, great vehicle, had it 9 years,tip on closing upper tailgate,pull it down on the handle inside,purpose built for the job, keeps hands and tailgate clean!!
Great video last year I bought a 2010 one owner 40,120 miles full history from New L322 3.6 TD V8 having previously had a P38 Petrol. Love the car even more than the P38. Already had 1st service with LR local specialist at Wigton Cumbria. Simon Huntingdon Ltd. Excellent service and advice.
That's awesome you found one with such low mileage. Hope you have many years of enjoyable motoring together!
I have the same model as yours on an 07. Totally smitten. Had it coming up for 4 years and love driving it still. Totally agree on doing plenty of preventative maintenance though and it wont let you down
how much do you spend per year maintaining it? did you have any huge issues over the last 4 years?
It’s been very good so far with regular oil and filter changes. Did have an issue at last mot with welding on sills and had to replace front subframe which wasn’t great
I've got a Range Rover Velar D300 R-Dynamic HSE and it is the first Range Rover I have owned and I absolutely love it. It is the best car I have ever had and I have had quite a few different cars before including BMW 5 Series (M5), Audi A6's, Isuzu Troopers, etc.
I’m the same, love my D300.
Totally agree with everything you say I’ve driven various RR’s and I’ve got a 3.6TDV8 for me they are the perfect vehicle like you said about the 4.4 TDV8 I noticed that to hence why I bought the 3.6
Great video
Excellent review, I own a 4.4 2011 se, you are correct about the turbo lag, but you learn to live with it, I bought a good one last year, they are fabulous vehicles.
I quite like this car myself and thank you for sharing all those handy tips for a prospective buyer
Great video
Nice, no nonsense review.
I had a silver L322 with blue seats. Will be looking for another soon. Will be in contact on next trip to the UK.
I owned the 3.6 V8 sport 2010.....First 100Kms was the best....After that i wish i had sold it....Yes nothing like a ranger rover when it comes to a drives car...
..Absolutely lovely...and then i owned 2 others 2018 onwards were great vehicles The 4.4 V8 was an awesome engine....
Superb video completely agree with you on all points. I’m after a good 3.6 👍🏼
This one is available for sale!
@@AshtonsCarsI’m guessing this car has now sold?
I’m looking to buy an L322.
I was looking at the 4.4 TDV8 but after your experience and explanation I’m now also considering the 3.6 TDV8.
Could you also give your thoughts on the best trim level?
Vogue, Vogue SE, Autobiography or Westminster?
Great video by the way.
Hi sorry for delay I just watched your video is amazing 🤩 I’m Asabere from Ghana leaving in Germany I also have Range Rover Vogue L322 4.4 petro 4x4 2008 model.
I will be happy to help me buy parts. I love this car
love the car just worry about little electrical bits,currently run a grand cherokee,bloody wing mirror £980 plus vat
I have 2010 tdv8 3.6 - the same model as shown in bronze.
Costs a lot to run but - a brilliant car. Comfy, comfy, comfy
That engine purrrrrs
The aerodynamics of a garden shed 😂
Best thing I bought for the car is an avery Bluetooth adapter so I can connect my iPhone, £80 from Amazon
Your right they are they best. Actually on the 4.4 they use a smaller turbo for higher rpm boost which is rather clever but yes the 3.6 set up works far better. I have to correct you also because you say the turbos just go". If the car has regular oil changes at 10k ks or less (as any turbo diesel should) with good quality oil (preferably oil with high zinc content if you don't have dpf's).. with both sump plugs removed when draining ... and you let the turbos warm up and cool down they should just about last the life of the engine! I have 350k ks on mine and the turbos are original and fine!
People that go thru turbos either don't service as they should and or have no idea about looking after them. Just like the transmissions in these cars will go forever if serviced regularly and looked after
Loved mine but traded up for a sdv8 l405 night and day difference
I first learned to drive at age 11 on my grandfather's farm in my dad's Volvo 122S Amazon. I am 60 now & for the life of me I cannot understand why an able-bodied man would want automatic transmission. I once borrowed an automatic (a 2.2 litre Toyota) for about 20 minutes & that was enough for me - I'll never drive an automatic ever again (unless I am unlucky enough to lose a leg). They are absolutely dreadful things in my opinion
Does the battery drain quickly if a door/rear hatch is left open for +20 min? Anyone know of a fix?
🎉❤❤
I prefer the 3.6 myself. The 4.4 is lovely don't get me wrong, just not good enough for me to get rid of a perfectly good 3.6 for one.
What would you consider a good one? Is there a number of miles /kms it should have? I am in Canada and considering purchasing one and have done lots of research but figured i'd ask.
Most important is to buy one that is well maintained and has not been abused or neglected. They are not cheap cars to run so some owners cut corners on maintenance. I'd rather buy one with higher miles and service history than a lower mileage one where it has been mis-treated, if that makes sense. :)
Would have one in a shot if it wasn't for the simple fact that it would cost me £30 a week just to park it on the drive. (Tax and ins). I can live with the MPG as a small price to pay, as I only do about 3000 miles per annum, but 700 hundred flaming quid for the privilege of negotiating the potholes is criminal.
So I'll stick with my old discovery for the time being, but even that has gone up by a £100.😭😭😭
I feel your pain!! Add in ULEZ and it's a total nightmare for many people. Much as the L322 is one of my favourite cars of all time you certainly do pay a premium to own one. Especially with the current prices of insurance.
I don't think they were exported to the US in that trim in particular. right?
I honestly don't know - Assume most of the US cars would have been the petrol V8s.
No diesel in US
May I ask where about in the UK you are based?
Hi we are based in South Wales but we do offer nationwide delivery :)
@@AshtonsCarsgood to know
Is this the same one as on ebay atm?
Yes it is - Now available for sale @ £10995 ono.
Did you end up selling this Vogue?
Yes, I sold this one in August. But I have since bought another - Only this one is a V8 petrol. I will get a video up of that one soon....
Trying to find a 5.0 without the supercharger 🤷♂️
A very rare car in the UK
In Australia there is a lot for sale without supercharger and not many with supercharger.
I just got a 2010 NA 5.0 a month ago, absolute dream to drive, keep looking just make sure it has the timing chain done already
The m57 was a reliable engine the ford units not so much
The 11 reg newer v8 diesel is better
Same engine , jag
@ptescreen18 what do you mean? The 3.6 and 4.4 are different engines
The 4.4 and 8 speeds are far superior than yours
I have had a 4.4 / 8 speed before and I prefer the 3.6 / 6 speed. Not just me either - Harry Metcalfe (Harrys Garage) and Jeremy Clarkson agree... - The 4.4 is still a mighty fine car though and it is more economical which is obviously a consideration.
@@AshtonsCars neither of them have said the 3.6 is better than the 4.4. You've made that up.
@@DaleSteel you know we know you have a 4.4 rite)))
@@chrissmith-rw5sm not yet lol
