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 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.

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 Ian 👨🎤🇳🇿😎👍🍸🍸😂

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

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…

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.
