Worn rear tyres

The p38 has motorway height/low ride height, the axle doesn't move, just the chassis/body.
The L322 is full independent so the wheels pivot as the suspension goes up and down.
I'm looking at an L322 and been reading what does what etc, pretty sure it only has access, normal and high

It has access, normal and high that are selectable, motorway height is automatic and can't be selected,

Pretty poor design if the camber angle changes that much for a 25mm drop in height.

Just checked my measurements and it was 35mm O/S and 45mm N/S.

Yes it does it at around 65mph.

Not on ours, not sure which year it changed, but to get the 2011 to drop it’s 100mph.

And you can’t select manually.

Have to say, when the top speed is 130 and you're not allowed to do 100 in UK.. What's the point? What were they smoking?

I wrongly assumed that as the suspension was attached to the subframe the ride height was irrelevant.

The set ride height definitely effects the suspension geometry.
It's absolutely vital that the vehicle is loaded as per the LR instructions, and the vehicle is at normal height (should be checked for accuracy with a ruler against the LR specifications), and the engine is running while all adjustments are carried out.
It takes a good hour of work to carry out a full wheel alignment on an EAS equipped LR.
