![]() Edit 13/9. Just put through it's MOT, so it now runs until October 2013!
Hi all, I'd like to gauge if there would be any interest in my Diesel Rover 75 Auto Estate Connoisseur CDT in Wedgewood. It is on a 51 plate and has done 109k. The main details to this well-specced car can be found in the thread by Jules, whom I bought the car off last year, see here. As you can see it got Jules' seal of approval with him having sorted it out well! Though since I got it I have also had the following done: -PCV valve engine breather -Auto gearbox fluid -Passenger door solenoid -Front brake pads and discs and Rear brake pads and discs (all within last month - for MOT) -A new tyre (as one seemed to be toe-d in wrong) It is the 116 model, but I had this remapped by an excellent company. It is believed to be running circa 150bhp, but this hasn't affected economy over the last 5000 miles it has returned 45mpg (on the onboard computer). It cost me very little extra on my insurance, but has made the car much more driveable than in original state. Finally, although the photos look pristine, it is a late 2001 car and so it does have a few minor scrapes (i.e. on front bumper) and small parking dings, along with a little bit of corrosion on the upright between the window (you can see this on the second photo of Jules' page). Tax until the January 2013. MOT until October 2012. Depending on the price offered I may put it in for an MOT early. I'm led to believe that the prices are quite strong for diesels and particularly the combination of estate and auto, so I'd look for a price of £1̶9̶5̶0̶ £1650. Many thanks. Edit. Located near Derby.

![]() The listing seems to have been added to lots of people's 'watch list' - hopefully some prospective buyers and not all of you on here who'll be checking up on if it sells ![]()
