<opens fire exit & prepares to run like *******>

to convert a p38 from manual to auto IMHO is a HUGE job  :lol: you would need the box,all the wiring loom
interior panels,the dash switches for putting it into low box,ecu etc

have a pop over to the P38 section on www.rangerovers.net there are some seriously knowledgable guys on there

I bet it would be an absolute nightmare and you'll no doubt need access to rovacom etc

I'd sooner just buy an auto but some like a challenge
