Default Rover 75 2.0 Diesel Connoisseur Tourer For Sale **NOW SOLD**

Hello everyone,

Sadly the time has come to sell my 75 Tourer due to a growing family and the fact I can't get 3 car seats across the back, so I am having to "upgrade" to the dreaded people carrier.

Details as follows:

2.0 diesel, Connoisseur Tourer.
53 plate, manual gearbox.
Colour: Chagall Supertallic (ie metallic blue, special order colour)
Beige Leather interior.

Mileage 62,100
MOT til 26th Jan 2013
Tax til 30th June 2013

Full Service History - full service not due until August 2013.

Dunlop tyres all round, three with 6.5mm tread, one needs replacing.

Maintained regardless of cost at Rover specialists (M&G in Bradford) whilst in my ownership.

Some highlights are:
Full 4 wheel tracking done 10th July 2012.
Brand new clutch and slave cylinder fitted May 2012 at a cost of £514, with 2 year guarantee.
Rear springs replaced 5th Oct 2011.
Coolant and brake fluid replaced July 2011.

Panasonic KD-R921BT stereo with bluetooth hands free kit, ipod integration etc, only recently purchased (in July) at a cost of £160.

Genuine Rover rubber loadspace liner.

A couple of minor Tesco marks as you would expect on a 53 plate car

I would like £4,200 ONO (but open to negotiation!!)
WILL NOW ACCEPT £3,800 NO OFFERS!!!
Now on eBay - start price £3,500 - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=271086481589.

Ok guys, so here is the deal.

I am prepared to listen to offers, but I know what I can accept in order to have enough left to put down as a deposit on my next car.

Look at what you're getting other than the usual Connoisseur spec.... the Bluetooth/hands free/iPod stereo, 8 months tax, service not due til end of next summer, rare colour, great tyres, clutch just done, FSH etc.

I am after a quick sale, try me!

Now on eBay - £3,500 start, no reserve.

If there is just one bidder, that's what it will go for!

I find it interesting that only a year ago, these specs were going for £4.5k easily.
I've seen some go for a less but with 100k+ miles on the clock.

We shall see what happens, but at the end of the day if it doesn't sell then I'll keep it. I can't afford to let it go for any less.

And if only one person bids and it goes for the start price, the someone is getting a lot of car for a good price IMHO!

If someone does want to offer less, then as it stands I'd cash in the tax (worth £136), take the new JVC Bluetooth/hands free/iPod stereo out (bought for £160 in July) and put the original Rover unit back in.
