I personally couldn’t spend £25K on a l322

So for me it’s got to be a l405 onto no6 Range Rover

Everyone needs a hobby

If you can afford the L405 and want to spend it what it needs to purchase one, then absolutely get one.
For me the step up to get a 50k mile L405 was unjustifiable, so I spent £22k on my 2012 L322 Vogue.
Oh yeah Ivory is the only way to go  Encourage alternative fuels, use all the petrol!

I am - I think - going to bite the bullet and go for the L405.

Don't get me wrong, ivory looks really nice.

But with wearing jeans, a dog and children, I'm not confident it would stay looking nice for too long. What do I put here then?

I have worn jeans on JLR ivory for years and had no problems. For young kids, they will trash any leather with sweets, etc so just shell out a couple of hundred on a nice tailored seat protector. makes it safe for dogs as well.

Jeans and children no problem with ivory imho. My kids are now 13/15 and we have have Ivory interiors in 4x4's since they were born - actually the black interior in my 997 shows up more marks and crumbs on a day to day basis because it is so plain black (unlike say a VSE semi aniline seat).

A baby wipe is a much underestimated assistant in the cleaning of Ivory seats, and the sense of occasion when you are in a light interior is very much worth any extra effort - keeping a black Range Rover looking shiny is a different matter however! 2016 (L405) Autobiography in Black with Ivory - for ULEZ

Agreed, thats why I have always stuck with ivory leather, its not hard to clean and keep looking nice, and it lightens up the whole interior of the car. Then I stumbled across my FFRR with Tan Leather, and fell in love with that!

The Cayenne I had with Savannah was a tan like interior and I owned it for years.
Liked it but dark exterior and light interior is my go to combination.

Keeping Ivory nice and clean has never been an issue though and my next car will have it too. 2016 (L405) Autobiography in Black with Ivory - for ULEZ
