If I had some space, I'd be dragging it home.......

Here´s yer gearbox

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/rover-diesel-7...item27b0dd339c

If I was living in the UK I would be along with a trailer, then pick a similar gear box up and then spent my spare time this spring fitting it. Crazy price, that would buy you 2 leather interiors at the scrappys here

It would be a shame to see this broken but thats the way of life..

I know Corin and he would never normally break a good car but I know he is very busy at the moment and fixing it himself is not an option.

It's worth a lot more as parts.. so common sence states break it.

shame a member cannot get it for a fixer.. I'd have it in a heartbeat if I could spare the cash. It's exactly what I'm after.

I believe Corins car is auto not a manual

I´m not too familular with the 2 boxes, out of the car. Suppose you´re right

. But a auto box shouldn´t be too difficult to come by. And it might just be that the oil needs changing

Yes you could be right it might only need the oil changing or even topping up

True... You seem to be a very intelligent bloke (especially having such a good christian name (are we allowed to say christian

)

You were a bit lucky there, you could have been called Cheryl (you little angel).

Roverowner · 13th April 2010, 21:10

I´ll give you Cheryl.... my lad

Seems as though I´ve just been talked into buying a diesel from some bloke ringing me at home and giving me the heavy come on. And I thought I´d blocked all those telephone sellers.......

Leander · 13th April 2010, 21:39

My middle name is Alan....

..but getting back on thread, that's a beautiful a car Corin, at a very good price!

I do speak as one who has a tourer in the same colour and interior, but 02, so not pre project drive unfortunately.

I think we should keep giving it a bump until it gets the buyer it deserves.

Cheers
