There seems to be a substantial variance in pricing for this model, this being the most expensive I’ve seen:

Are they that desirable or am I missing something significant?

Does seem very strong on the price - but just look at that interior, absolutely gorgeous - just how a RR should be like a Gentleman’s Club 2021 L405 Vogue SE 4.4 V8 DIESEL ~ #17

I think the variance between cheapest and most expensive is getting bigger. Partly because of a resurgence of interest in the L322 (for obvious reasons) and partly because as time goes on, really nice cars are harder and harder to find. Although £22k might seem a crazy price in the context of L322 values, in absolute terms it's still probably the best car you can buy for that money by a long way.

In fact I'm seriously tempted by that one myself.

Tbh, my question comes from a pretty selfish point of view, as I had a mid-life crisis during the pandemic and bought all my "wishlist" cars in that time as I was gifted some inheritance. The whole episode has come back to bite me and I'm selling everything, but I really don't want to sell the L322. It's still sub 90k miles and I think it'd take another year to get there (I do most of my miles in a 275k km Discovery 3) and my guilt would be as assuaged by the fact that my 2009 was holding some of its value and was worth pumping money into maintaining it.
