Default Hello to everyone!

Hi!

I've just picked up my third 75 tourer, and felt it is about time I joined the club. My latest is a 2003 75 connoisseur SE Tourer with the 2.5L v6 engine in dark blue. She is a sweetie, and I'm so glad to be back behind the wheel of a 75.

The car is loaded, paperwork with it lists the purchase price as £22,890. It has a highline navigation which is working (sort of). There are number of questions I have that maybe someone here could answer or point me to the right thread.

1: the GPS is stuck in Norfolk and I'm in Cheshire. I'm thinking this might be an issue with the shark fin from my googling, does this sound right?

2: The little LCD screen top centre of the dash that shows warnings is failing. Can it be repaired?

3: Is there any way the TV can be changed to display as a monitor? I fancy putting my phone screen onto the display.

4: The car has had springs replaced several times. Is this a known issue or is there something else going on?

5: Who is the best Rover specialist in West Cheshire (Northwich, Chester, Liverpool or Manchester)

6: Is there a good supplier for used spares? The boot cover is very poor, for example, and I would like to replace it.

7: There are a few modern upgrades such as stop/start that I would like to add, anyone know if this has been done?

There you go, quite a few questions to start with!

Regards, Richard
