Another 08 plate Tourer

Here's another of the Bermuda cars for sale! Unusual to see a Silver 75 with Deep Sea Green leather, but I think it looks excellent.

Lots of money, but very low mileage!

Some advisories to be aware of on the last MOT. The most concerning probably is the advisory stating some corrosion in front subframe.

You just need to type in the registration and make in the following link for details.

Interior is smart, shame the wheel looks a bit odd with the dark wood. Why is a 2003 car on a 2008 plate i wonder?

12 Tourers were exported to Bermuda but the end customer went bust and the cars were stored. They were bought back to the UK in 2008 by SMC of Slough and were registered as new cars.

Dealer specs state cruise control but I see no relevant buttons on the steering wheel? And no FBH but does have nice serpent alloys, Could be a good car with lowish mileage. Funny how Rover went back to the older style front on a later car

I had just seen that and been scratching my head, it made NO sense to me at all and by the time I had had a little look at the thread regarding the green Limo for sale, I was trying to think of how to ask this very question without upsetting anyone, but what the hell was going on with this car?

I thought to check its MOT history too, but by the time I went to the front page to post the question I find it has been asked, answered and even better explained.

Clever dicks!

.... but thank you.

Oh! and although I love Deep Sea Green seats (I own a set somewhere )and we also own a silver connoisseur, IMO together it's yeuck!
