My two year love/hate relationship with my P400e LWB is about to end. The car has been mainly reliable with the exception of the phev batteries not talking to the car so it refused to charge for about three months whilst I waited for parts to arrive. One thing after another happened to it - some minor irritations - the pano roof cracked and it took 6 months to get one out of the insurance company and I hit the rear bumper parking.
It then became a magnet for collisions. I was side-swiped by a van driving in Austria on holidays which dented the whole of the passenger side. It got repaired very badly (thanks to Direct Line "approved" repairer) with poor panel gaps and sanding marks showing (much badgering of same appalling insurance company finally got that rectified), then a guy who works for me hit an oncoming car in a country lane smashing the front bumper..... 3 months waiting for the insurance to approve a repair at Land Rover, oh and some oik nicked an "N" from the front.
I then decided to go old school and bought a P38 30th Anniversary. Looks nice and goes OK but I am exhausted when I get out after a long run and have had a mini work-out!
That's going to so Im getting another L405 LWB, this time a 2019 S/C - not had a supercharged before, so that will be a change.
No hybrid woes and a proper sounding engine rather than one that sounds like a sewing machine! A new start and hopefully no more knocks. 2005 L322 Vogue Gold gone

Exhausted after driving a P38? If it feels like a mini work out then something isn't quite right!

It was too much of a culture shock from the L405 - noisy, slow. Its a good car and starts first time, but realised that going back in time isn't for me. 2005 L322 Vogue Gold gone

The car must know it's going! It is still at the bodyshop who are completing the repairs and it has had a major coolant leak - it is draining out as soon as they fill it up.

This happened about 6 months ago and was towed in. Hopefully they can get it repaired in time for me to PX on Thursday, I just need to drive it from Kent to Cambridge. If it fails on the way, they can tow me there! Yes, it is the right thing to let this one go. 2005 L322 Vogue Gold gone
