Hey everyone,
I come from the armpit of the dark side, in other words a moderator over at the other place. Gilbertd recommended I join over here so after a bit of finagling here I am. I have a temperamental 2011 Range Rover Sport L320 3.0 TDV6, as such it’s what I mostly know since I tinker with it. A while back I had a 2000 P38 for around 8 years which was very up and down. Until recently I was working full time at an independent LR shop the last few years working on various LR’s, so I do have dirty hands. Now I’m kind of freelancing with another LR shop mostly doing electrical work and other projects. I am originally from So Cal, moved to Bristol, UK in 2018 and then Poznan, Poland in 2020 during the Covid nonsense. Hoping to get out of here in the near future, but have to see how it goes. Anyway, hope I can bring something to the forum.

I’m also the one who asked Frankie the filter part numbers for my car, it got them wrong, twice. It’s gotten just about everything asked of it wrong. Except when I asked it for a sweet tea recipe, it was actually pretty good.

Welcome.

At least Frankie knows how to make tea! Welcome here.

No idea what you did, but I assume my text to Gordon sorted something and you've finally got here.

Now all we need is an L320 forum topic and poach a few more users (the other one in Poland springs to mind).

I seem to recall having issues before trying to join here and gave up. Somebody finally squared it away.

An L320 forum would be lovely. I always say the L320 was the natural progression of the P38. Similar size, same wheel base, just updated. Even the same push button type setup for the tailgate. The facelift does it even more with putting in the analog clock, which means younger generations have no idea what time it is. But it’s like a bridge between the P38 and the L322. Not as feature packed and luxurious as an L322, but you know it’s in the same family.

We can definitely try to poach a few over. At least FF isn’t here… for now.

The L320 started as "baby Range Rover" but grew rather quickly in the designers/marketers hand and ended up being nearly as big.

Let's not discuss 'updated' in detail... ;-)

Range Rover of any version should have analog clock, at the very least something that looks like an analog clock. Just my opinion.

th.

Hey, I think we can all agree not all updates are necessarily good. I mean look at FF. And yes, an analog clock is paramount to any Range Rover. The 05-09 L320’s not having analog clocks seriously feels out of whack.

Welcome. Totally agree with the analog clock stuff above. Arrival time is always "roughly XX mins" anyway !!

welcome to the pub.

Welcome in from the cold and dark!
Even if you don't have a "proper" Rangie anymore, you are certainly a welcome
addition to the Pub!
I look forward to seeing the new forum subdivision.
My best mate in Oz has a 320 and will be happy to join in the fun.
As for So Cal? Born there,( bailed to Hawaii ASAP.)
It's a great place to be FROM!

Welcome!!
I have to admit I've been pondering an L322.. not sure if it's a good idea or not. It'll be great to have a NoExpert here!
