What a great site this is, I have recently bought a L322 TDV8 Vogue SE in siler with a black interior. Whilst the turbos have been done, and the suspension all works as it should, it does have its niggles which with the wealth of information on here I am starting to address. No doubt I will be asking some stupid questions in due course, mainly to do with electrics, which is my nemesis. So why then did I buy a RR? Because I wanted to and I will have to learn!

Welcome!
Change all the fluids throughout as a priority. Both gearboxes, both diffs, coolant, brake fluid, PAS fluid and engine oil

If you are new to these cars it's well worth paying a specialist to give it a detailed inspection so you know what's what in terms of potential jobs. They may well give you a list as long as your arm but don't be alarmed as these cars can be run quite well as running repairs/ projects and you can often take your time to work through them. 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322)

Thank you both. Fortunately I have the receipts for engine oil and filter change under 2000 miles ago when the turbos were changed, the gearbox oil and filter 10000 miles ago and diff oils 8000 miles ago, so do not have too many concerns with those. I will check the power steering and brake fluids, but suspect they are ok since the engine was removed for the turbos to be fitted. Getting an independent health check done is a great idea. I am aware of a few faults already, but with the help on threads on this site, I am working my way through them. GPS receiver already successfully replaced, and the single solenoid heater valve on order to hopefully get heat inside! Charles Harrison

Welcome to the site, Charles.

I never had an independent inspection at all on any of mine. I just used common sense and the good folk of the forum here. 2017 4.4 SDV8 Autobiography in black
