Badge = black to denote the most powerful engines so Supercharged or late TDV8s.

Parcel shelf - as you have the reclining rear seats you should have the special very rare version of the parcel shelf that has the little flaps on the front of it to allow the seats to recline backwards. Preserve it as they are hen's teeth rare!

It was a large part of the sale for me - I wanted dark leather seating and I like navy blue anyway, but I liked how the rest of the trim was light which makes the most of that enormous glass area in the L322.

On the wheel bolt point, typical that LR original parts are three times the cost of anyone else!

I might have to check with Robin what Duckworth could manage on pricing

Interesting - thank you for that. I won't "upgrade" it then

What I have got looks like this:

I don't think this has flaps as described? It's definitely not the same colour as the trim.

Also, it doesn't sit properly flat... there are four prongs, two per side which have to locate in the recesses in the window ledge trim; if these are in (and one of them has snapped) then it sticks up like this. If I leave it in only one set of prongs it rattles but does lie flat on the fold line.

Seems to be a perfect example of how very wrong Solihull were able to get some of their bits of design... 2012 L322 TDV8 Vogue SE: Buckingham Blue

Ah yes you're missing the original shelf. I had a parchment interior with reclining rear seats in mine and the shelf had the flaps, and was an excellent colour match. I suspect you're right that you've got a 'normal' ivory shelf in it. 2010 L322 4.4 TDV8 Autobiography - SOLD

Nice car Sir Not much to sort out.

Regarding the parcel shelf, mine is old, a 2006 Td6, has navy blue seats and what I always called cream interior, my parcel shelf is the same colour as yours, maybe someone replaced the original with an old 'faded' item?
On the badges, a lot of people have changed from the green to black and silver, as my car is silver the black badges look better. ( To me ) Obviously the purists amongst us will disagree.

As for tool storage, there is a very handy sized bin under the floor, in the boot, off side, under a hinged cover, I think yours is the same as older models in that respect. I only found mine and found the plastic liner to be missing, weeks after I bought mine

That’s an Ivory parcel shelf, not faded.....

You could always recover it in leather or parchment material.

Or you may find someone with the shelf you need, in an Ivory car.... and have a little swap....

The pegs can be bought from a dealer cheaply, at least they could a few years ago.

Very nice car and good mileage. Love that you have the 360 cam, makes a big difference wish mine had that.
I am on my first RR 2011 TDV8 Autobiography but the only extra it has is the rear entertainment with original headphones and remote. Bought it as 3rd owner but with 172K on the clock, has had loads done and engine is so quiet its unbelievable.

Your interior looks awesome love the wood bits and contrast. Very clean looking.

I'm currently trying to see what "essentials" I should be doing every year to keep it running smoothly.
My last car was a Freelander 2 (2007) and I had for 3 years and had to do nothing but replace one suspension spring.

Hoping that's the worst I have for the next 3.

I feel like a big kid every time I start the engine and I'm 53, big kid at heart, wish I had bought RR many years before.

Thanks John, I can't lie, the Vogue SE spec is a nice start but this one had some good options ticked. I'm trying to find a brochure and price list on eBay, there is a 2011 brochure up on there at the moment but the joker selling it wants £35 which is as much as the full owner's manual packs on there with the leather cases!

I think the build date on this was November 2011 although it's a 12MY vehicle. Does that make it really an 11.5? From what I have found the 'true' 12MY cars were only Westminster or Autobiography, at least that's what the 2012 brochure I've seen says.

The car this is replacing is the 2005 Defender you can see on the link in my signature. It's been great to me, but it's such a world away from the luxury and easy cruising of the Rangie. 2012 L322 TDV8 Vogue SE: Buckingham Blue

Don't know if this will help but found this online

I had a quick look, expensive books and case, I was lucky to have mine with the car and £13k+ worth of bills the previous owner did in the last 4 years.

Cracking looking car, a well spec'd Vogue SE, with all the toys by the looks of it, enjoy it

Regards the parcel shelf, I had several L322 Autobiography with rear reclining seats, the parcel shelf wont sit right if its not got the flaps on it so as you say get on the hunt for a used one.

@rob; Had no idea!

In the disco 4 you got the speed reading big in the middle of the display, miss that on the L322 but this is something. RR Vogue 4.4 TDV8 - 11
