Buckle Up is a channel that is only interested in one thing - cars!
We upload a myriad of different content including car review videos, car challenge videos, car news videos and much, much more!
Our videos are made in a similar style to that of Top Gear, Fifth Gear, Car Throttle, Doug DeMuro, carwow, Carfection, The Grand Tour, MotorTrend and many more.
We would all thoroughly recommend their channels, so why not go and check them out.
Bought a 2011 TDV8 4.4 Vogue SE and it is without doubt the best I have ever owned.Being my 9th Rangie and used to the usual issues this has been brilliant so far. Getting 30+ mpg and nearly 40 on a run is, up until now unheard-of for a Range Rover . With the 8 speed gearbox and 4.4 TDV8 engine it is the smoothest and quietist yet.The high road tax for me is worth every penny. I would rather spend on this rather than other luxuries and still get that buzz every time you climb in the drivers seat which is more comfortable than even your favourite arm chair , which probably is not heated or cooled in the summer, and doesn't have all the adjustments. For me the best car in the world.
It's definitely one of the great all rounders, and at the prices they're available at its a no brainer
100%...Don,t like the road tax (£675 FFS)..Took inlet manifold off to De-Coke!! Was like a old house chimney inside!! Re-mapped does 5+ mpg more the Torks brilliant ..would love the newer one BUT Harry`s Garage n Jezzer reckon best Range Rover LR have ever built..
Got one same year and so has my son and your absolutely correct they are a stunning car we love them.
You both sound like men of immense taste to me
Your understanding of the range Rover is exceptionally great am impressed keep it up
Thank you! You'd hope I would know a bit about the car I bought 😅
Whoever filmed those drone shots deserves a raise!
Well done Rob
You bought the most amazing car you can buy for this kind of money! Will be my next car too soon! Regards from Austria 👍
You’ll love it! Btw Austria is a beautiful country!
@@BuckleUpShow indeed I am looking forward into this RR adventure 😀🙏. Austria is truly a great country just like the UK too 👌
Awesome car! Been toying with the idea of getting one at the end of my current lease. How many miles did it have on the clock when you purchased it? Also, how did you know what to look out when buying? I'm scared I pick one with obvious issues that I should have noticed (very new to used cars).
I purchased it at 142k miles. There are a few good buyers guides online, but good things to check are rust around the rear arches and if it has a stack of service history. The more the better, as it means the car has been well looked after. Strongest (diesel) engine is the 4.4 TDV8. If you do buy one, be sure to put some money aside every month to cover any potential bills that could crop up!
A truly magical car and worth every penny on maintenance.
Thanks for watching, Gary!
Crippling anxiety every time you get in the car.
big shot out from jamaica bro love the review love the l322 clean her up and hit the streets koooool
Thanks for watching, Paul! Jamaica is a stunning country!
I fancied an L322 and have two work colleagues who have them (one a 2010 Vogue SE, the other a 2012 Westminster). For some time one of them said don’t buy one, costa fortune in repairs and maintenance while the other said buy one, best car in the world! Unfortunately the latter just had huge issues with his including a blown turbo and has a £4k bill. Now both of them are in the “whatever you do don’t buy one” camp and both are selling. These are the only two people I know who ever owned one. So I’m getting a salary sacrifice EV instead!
Irrespective of how good/not good an L322 may be, a salary-sacrifice EV is almost certainly a better decision 😅😂

Sono felice di possedere una l322 td6 vogue da 12 anni e la cambierei soltanto con una range rover tdv8 / 4.4 perché consuma meno e supera i 200km/h facilmente nei miei viaggi in Germania !Le altre range più nuove non sono iconiche ed affascinanti quanto la L322.
Ho provato il 313 hp(4.4 tdv8) e il nuovo Discovery da 250hp e sinceramente tra le due preferisco la Range Rover ,nettamente superiore della new entry Land
Well you made a mistake. That's down to owner neglect most likely. I've done 20,000 in mine in the last year and never let me down. Has its quirks? Yes. But wouldnt change it. Now on 160,000.
@@warrengeew regular maintenance and servicing is the way
Great review and congratulations on the new car. Love it man 👌❤️
Cheers mate, thanks for watching!
Great review and congratulations on the new car.
By his new car you mean the Audi TT?
Thanks Jasper, great video!! Amusing and informative. Would be interesting to find out what it’s been like to live with after a few months. Thanks again
Thanks for watching, Simon! Funnily enough a video just like that is on the horizon. Make sure to subscribe so you don't miss out!
Great video, enjoy the new car Jasper
Thanks for watching, we know he will!
Excellent review Jasper
Thank you kindly - update video after 6 months will be in the works soon!
"1:55....the ultimate of all Range Rover sarcasm......but....so damn true!"😂🤣
You will always find cutting-edge humour on this channel 😂😂
@@BuckleUpShow --->"I see that, and keep up the good work!"🤙🏽👍🏽
Nice review brother. Keep it up
Thanks for watching!
Stunning Range Rover. Great review
Thanks for watching!
I had a 2008 HSe vogue ,best car in the world, thanks
Thanks for watching!
Spot on review.
Good job. Congrats on your new purchase.
Thanks for watching!
Sorry mate, the dashboard panels are NOT piano black plastic but piano black WOOD!
The thing that turns it piano black is polyurethane so it really makes no difference what's underneath, though I suspect if there's any wood in there at all it's just a veneer
Bet you enjoyed been Buckled up Whilst being Bummed 😂
Oh it was you who had me buckled up! When do you wanna meet up again? 😘
@@BuckleUpShow 😂
Just stumbled on your videos whilst watching Range Rover videos. Very enjoyable to watch. Just bought a 2011 Vogue here in Australia after owning a 2007 in the UK. Without doubt the most comfortable car I've ever driven.
Hey there! Hope you'll stick around for our other videos? Without a doubt it's the most comfortable car I've driven.
@@BuckleUpShow definitely will stick around. Got yourselves a new subscriber.
I really enjoyed your presentation,
Thanks for watching, Stan!
Hi, liked the vid, I'm thinking of purchasing one, had a vogue se back in the 80's, really loved it, enjoyed seeing the sites too, recognised most of them as I am from Matlock, all the best, safe driving, SJ.
Definitely a purchase worth recommending! Also check out Eaton Cars Duffield, where I bought mine - can't fault Mark and his team, and they have a good selection available.
@@BuckleUpShow cheers for that, I'll take a look, 👍
Love an old Range Rover doesn't matter what model it is
So do we. Harry has a pining for a P38 😅
I'm living in NZ were prices for these are unfortunately higher than in the UK. They go for about 40000 NZD (about 20000 GBP) with about 180000 KM (112000 miles) on the clock. I hope someone can help me out getting an idea if 180000km is considered already high mileage for a 2012 Vogue TDV8 or, if service maintenance has been top notch, its nothing to worry too much about? Thanks for the help!
That kind of mileage generally isn't a problem for the engines in the 2012 TDV8. If service history is immaculate, as long as you keep on top of it, you shouldn't experience too many issues. It will need maintenance, though, so don't expect it to never break!
Nice vlog...Just purchased one.
*we cannot be held responsible for any emotional or financial stress caused by used Range Rover products*
Enjoy and look after it
Oh he will!
Personally the L322 are the pinnacle of automotive technology they will never be bettered when they are running smoothly and running properly. They are the do anything car you name it you can use them for it.
I think you're correct, it's just unfortunately they sometimes require a little more work than vehicles from equivalent brands. However, when working, they are unbeatable 😁
Ay up a part of
That vid were in Matlock i live near there and go to the Sainsbury’s
Indeed it was!
Thank you, very nice review!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching Sean 😁
A Range Rover just looks right flying up a hilly field
It’s what it was born to do!
Loved mine but just got a 2016 l405 sdv8 no comparison
There's just something nice about the square sholdured look of an L322 though
Happy new car!
Thanks Leah!
Love the alloys
Especially when they’re caked in mud
I nearly brought this range rover but you got to it one day before I did 🤣
Ah sorry for that! The dealer I bought it from has a really good amount of stock. You've just missed out with getting a leaky air-suspension bag replaced 🤦🏻♂️
@@BuckleUpShow yeah I look at multiple ones he had in seemed like a genuine bloke but I went with a different dealer as he had the spec I wanted. Dont worry the air bag is nothing my fuel pump shat itself within a week of having it 🤣
#JustRangeRoverThings
Is this your daily? How has it held up for you? Here in Canada with just have gas and no diesels. Prices are also on the higher side given the potential for problems, and general maintenance. I still want one.
It is indeed my daily. Holding up pretty well - I was expecting there to be a need for repairs, but it's not been too bad. Had to replace both of the front air springs as they had started leaking, but no other problems as of yet, and I'm six months in 😅
Good job !
Thanks for watching!
Sweet sweet lovely car
Sweet car. Sweet sweet car.
fantastic pick🔥🔥🔥
Thank you!
do i have cataracts or is it super foggy out?
It was super foggy. When I filmed all of the walk around segment the weather was terrible 😂
@@BuckleUpShow whew. Cancelling my eye doctor appt.
I will love to buy one right now 4.4TDV8 but London Ulez standing in my way
Not really any way round that, unless you fancy moving out of London
I see you’ve got it up for sale now
No, I sold the car about 6 weeks ago to someone who does a bit of car dealing on the side.
Decent that
I’m looking to buy the same
What years yours?
Is there a particular optional extra yours has that you’d recommend as a must
Mine is a 2011 model. As with any used car prioritise condition and service history over mileage. If you can get a Vogue SE spec you get heated seats all round, and then an optional extra was radar cruise control. Worth going through the photos/description of the adverts in detail. Check EVERYTHING works 😅
@@BuckleUpShow cheers bud
Where did you source it. Costs / deal ? All info helps. Thanks
Hi Terence, I sourced it from a dealer specialising in Range Rovers who is quite near to where I live. They had a range of stock (mainly L322s) covering a wide range of prices. Can be found on eBay and a few other car selling sites by the name of Eaton Cars 😊
I have found 2 L322 tdv8 recently which were ulez compliant but had lots of mechanical issues. I’m still looking 🤞

No break downs so far 🤞 but we'll keep you posted
I’ve always wanted one cause it has one of the best interiors bar none. However it’s the most unreliable car money pit according to long term owners. Great presentation 🎉
The interior is incredible. If you buy one that's been looked after and continue to look after it yourself, it should all be okay 😅
Iv owned mine from new 21 years old , best car iv ever owned, it’s not as bad as you think to look after (well mine isn’t) I own other cars but the L322 is my favourite
If you look after it, it will look after you 🥰
@@BuckleUpShow 👏👏👏👏
funny looking cigarette in ashtray at 09:08 (:
It was a ticket from a car park 😂
Crippling anxiety every time you get in the car.
I have medication for that 😅
No need to justify the purchase of an L322. Now those tight pants, I'm not sure you can justify those.z
Do the rear seats fold completely flat like an old estate?
In my head it does still need justifying! 😂 Unfortunately, my dress sense will get no explanation, and no, the seats don't fold completely flat as the bases don't drop, so the backrest sits higher up than the rest of the boot floor.
Yes, Range Rover is the greatest 4x4 ever made
I will agree with you but some may disagree! 😂
I have found 2 L322 tdv8 recently which were ulez compliant but had lots of mechanical issues. I’m still looking 🤞
You won't find a TDV8 that meets the Euro6 emissions standard. None of the diesels of the L322 generation meet Euro6. Some of the petrol models will be Euro4 compliant, and can therefore be driven in the ULEZ Zone without paying the additional charge. (Congestion charges would still apply.) My advice is either get a much newer, Euro6-compliant diesel, or, for city driving, an L322-onwards petrol.
@@BuckleUpShow thanks again
Right now, I found two on Auto trader tdv8 3.6 ulez complaint £8,450, £5,795
How much did you pay for it , thanks
In Cash? About 3k but there was some trading in done also
How to get a RR tdv8 ulez compliant in the market(London )right now?
By buying an L405 with a Euro 6 TDV8
Just swapped our E70 X5 for an L322 (2011 5.0 S/C) as there is nothing in the sub 20k price bracket which feels remotely as "special" whilst offering enough space for two dogs and a load of kids stuff. The 5.0 motor is really refined (and ridiculously powerful), and with the 20p premium between petrol and diesel at the moment, not a huge amount more to run than the TDV8, plus it's ULEZ compliant. The previous owner has spent 20k on ours in the last 2 years, and I've still had to replace things like the front air spring and rear adaptive shocks so I can see where they get their reputation, though I do most work myself which saves a lot of cost. Best change I've made so far was to swap the 255/50R20s for some 255/55s (Pirelli scorpion zero all season with PNCS) - they made the ride even quieter and the profile suits the look of the car a little better.
Thanks for watching, may have to take your advice on the tires
How would you say it compares to the E70 since I'm looking to buy one or the other 😅
The Range Rover is better
@vatrica1 the RR is way better than the X5, I'm not even sure they're comparable now I've owned the L322 for a bit. Wish I'd swapped sooner!
"Detty pig"😂
It certainly was!
I have a 2008 Range Rover Sport
Which engine?
A couple of questions if I may?? How did you buy it so cheap? what are the current miles? does it have FSH?
It's all a question of shrewd negotiation
@@BuckleUpShow OK , so no answer, then. sounds dodgy put that way.
@@BuckleUpShow Or the cheapest RR 4.4 tdv8 is BS and just clickbait.
It has a service history, it also has 140k miles on it, that helped with the price.
@@BuckleUpShow not to get it to 3.5K it doesn't, did you rob someone blind?
Rear seat legroom looks pretty sparse
There's less than on a modern RR with a longer wheelbase, but it's perfectly adequate and far more than a standard hatchback will give you.
@@BuckleUpShowI would hope a full sized SUV would have more legroom than a hatchback
It does
Didn't even watch the video and i know the answer. Its a solid no. Not even close.
So what is?
No excuse , get the car washed ☺️
But then people would complain it isn’t being used properly. I like my Land Rovers to look used!
Good video but a suggestion for next time…. Please wash it prior to filming…. It’s absolutely filthy mate. I get you live rural but surely a pressure wash is close enough prior to making review vlog.
Thanks for watching and actually, it isn’t. I live a good 25 minutes from the nearest town and it’s mostly single track lanes the whole way, so by the time I’ve been to wash it and driven back, it’ll be filthy again.
You state you got it for 3.5K but cannot back it up, sounds like BS to me.
Jealousy is cruel mistress, Neil
What do you expect him to do Neil, make a video showing everyone his bank statement? Sounds like you just want to commit identity theft to me...
@@McCrazyFish No, But if he wants to stae the cheapest RR in the UK, then at least state how he paid for it, was it ebay> private sale for 3.5K? nowt difficult. is it? otherwise it is another person waffling about their L322 4.4TDV8.
@@neilwhite8131 I heard he bought it on Cars & Bids, the best online auction marketplace to buy and sell modern enthusiast cars - and that means pretty much anything that’s cool from the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, 2010s, or 2020s. To us, “cool” ranges from the obvious (a Ferrari F355 or a Lamborghini Gallardo) to the esoteric (a pristine Dodge Dakota Convertible or a Mercury Capri XR2) to the traditional fun cars that enthusiasts love (a Mazda MX-5 Miata or a Porsche 911). Basically everything that’s exciting, fun, interesting, or quirky is welcome here - as long as it comes from the modern era.
Although there are many places to buy and sell a special car, Cars & Bids offers significant advantages over other websites. Here are just a few of our benefits:
We’re focused on modern enthusiast cars: the 1980s to the 2020s. That means anyone interested in the next era of exciting cars will come here first to buy and sell.
Our fees are low. Sellers list for free, and the buyer's fee is just 4.5%, with a minimum of $225 and a maximum of $4,500 - far below other auction houses and enthusiast car auction websites.
We believe that every vehicle should come with a vehicle history report - so we provide one, for free, instead of asking sellers to pay for their own.
Doug DeMuro will bring extra eyes - and extra buyers - to your cars, periodically reviewing cars offered on Cars & Bids. If your car is chosen, you’ll get far more eyes on your vehicle than any other auction platform on earth.
While other car auctions take weeks or even months to get your car listed and available to buyers, we’ll get your car listed quickly - and we’ll even take your input on scheduling your car’s auction.
Cars & Bids makes it easy to submit your car for sale. We value your time by asking for only a few crucial details before letting you know whether or not we’re accepting your vehicle. That means you don’t have to waste your time providing initial information only to have your car rejected.
Cars & Bids is the most user-friendly online automotive marketplace, with easy sorting and searching - and simplified auctions that tell you exactly what you need to know about each vehicle.
We’re always here to help - including after the auction ends. We’ve built a step-by-step checklist to ensure a smooth sale - and we’re just a chat away if you have any questions.
@@peacockking3687 Haha , yep sounds like BS to me...
The L322 is literally the most garbage, unreliable Range Rover ever made. So no, it is not the best car in the world. No Range Rover is.
We're so sorry you can't afford car maintenance
Another Land Rover expert, have you ever owned one? Or have you got a mate who’s dad’s brothers sisters husband had one?
Only unreliable if you are cheap skate at maintenance
@@BuckleUpShow Those are some mighty big words for such a small man. My nan's 2021 Corolla is worth 3x what you paid for you Range Rover 🤣
You're really out here flexing that your nan has a nearly new Toyota hatchback ☠️☠️☠️
