the L stands for 1.8 Litre, would also go without L, I guess.

As well as the 75 he also owns an MG ZT-T 190+/2003 in Monogram Mirage2, a 1.6 R2/2005 Streetwise in Monogram Aurora, a Rover 114 Cabriolet and a 114 GTi.

Love the registrations .

Aah , those number plates, it was a mixture of chance, happiness and perseverance to get hold of them.
my ZT-T got ZT-190, the Streety RO-25, the Cabby RO-114 and the GTi RO-1114 , which is visually closest to 114.

my absolute dream would be one in Primrose Yellow, but the few here in Germany are all gone by now. So i was inclined to have it repainted in PY, but the new coat of paint would be in the original color .
I always looked for a 75 in a non every day color and high spec, in the combination with the
Aubergine interior, the 17' serpents and the tiny 1.8, i couldn't resist

here are the promised details about my Seventy.

thanks to Reebs, I now know that my Seventy came off the line on Friday 23.07.99 or on Saturday 24.07.99, which is quite amazing. I always thought
it was an early 2000 car.
According to my sources, it was built as a demonstrator car for Rover Germany
in an equipment to show what was feasible in terms of personalization.
Apparently, it was the only demo car produced for Germany in this version.
After the demonstration year, it went over to an MG Rover dealer near Berlin, still
active in MG Rover matters, and was only driven by employees of the house
and always cherished and cared for.

Anybody curious, you may visit us at the stand of the British Car Corner at the
Retro Classic in Stuttgart from 02.3.17 to 05.03.17
