One day

Yep... One day... In a far far away galaxy, the galaxy where 13 Million Yen is just pocket money (104k Pounds).

Still the mods made by "bigrichw" are not that bad, however I never understood why people will destroy any 4x4 or SUV lines by adding these useless "Side Steps"... especially when you have a Ranger Rover with Air Suspension.

Idiot! I suppose you are loaded an can afford a later model well congrats mate. If you have nothing nice to say keep your opinions to yourself. Thanks

I'm definitely not loaded, but I wouldn't try to fool anyone into thinking I am either ...

You post on a public forum and expect everyone else to like what you do? If I want to comment, positively or negatively, I will. If you don't want negative comments, don't post.

If you notice I also said you go for it ..

I thought that about side steps too.
However, I'm 6 foot 2" fairly tall,
My vogue has side steps fitted from new and they are a god send.
I also off road her and I do not have issues with the steps.

Exactly Hippo...

Tasteful mods / upgrades look good and enhance the overall look in my opinion.

Anyone know where you can get the headlight wiper blanking plate? I think I want to remove the headlight wipers as they look a bit pants with the mesh grill.

MOT Fail - the HID lighting system needs to have a method of cleaning the front glass if I remember correctly

I don't know... Each press car I tested fitted with these could have been much better looking without... And never I had to use them... My 5 yo daughter can climb our P38 in Access mode without much problems (We are a Japanese Size family ;-) )

Side bars are only for the looks
I have steps on mine and I use them quite a bit
And I think they look pretty good

side steps will be necessary for me in the not too distant future. getting my 65 yr old mom in and out is difficult now she has a full knee replacement. i know it wont be often, but at least it will help a bit for her.

As long as you have washers it's ok. My S4 had Xenons and only had washers no wipers. Wipers you can do without, 05+ L322 are washer jet only too

 

[bigrichw]

Lol just looked duh no washers!! Just wipers.. Fail

Fit some washers?
It's not as if they have to be any good after all you're not going to turn up for an MOT with sticky mud on your headlights are you?

I don't have side steps but if I had the spare cash I would, they are great for keeping the cow **** off the doors

Clear/red rear lights fitted today. Very happy. So just a set of 20inch Stomers and a private plate.. Done oustside.

Is it worth upgrading to the DVD MK4 Sat Nav unit?

The mkIV is better and faster, once I have saved the cash the mkIV is the first upgrade for me!

Yeah SWMBO is busting my nuts spending all this money on mods.. Oh well

It ain't a p38!
It's a lot higher!
My p38 didn't have side steps and that wasn't an issue.
My l322 has them." thank god"

Are your legs broken then? I'm 6ft and have never needed to use side steps on any Range Rover, sure the L322 is a few inches higher, but I can easily step into one without the aide of steps.

That all said, when I trade up my P38 I'd want a L322 with the sliding steps. I'd probably never use them myself, but I drive around a lot of people who currently struggle to climb into my P38. It'd be nice to have the option of steps for those who need them without having to see them.

I'm 6'3" and the Girlfriend is 5'4" and we both have no probs getting into the L322 at Standard height...!!
