2002 Rover 75 CDT saloon *SOLD*

[steve811]

I have decided that I need a car with more space and the need for a tourer means I have decided that the car will have to go! I have had the car for three years now and it has given me an immense amount of pleasure and has been very reliable, and I will be sad to see it go. The cars has number of age-related dings and scratches, some put there by me (front and rear bumpers) and some by inconsiderate people who don't care! I have tried to describe the car accurately, but anyone is welcome to come and look and see what they think! The worst parts about the car are the bodywork, in particular the front and rear bumpers. The rear was damaged when I reversed into a pole (he wasn't to happy either) which cracked the bumper. The front was scratched when I tried to mate the car with a pug, god only knows what the offspring would have been like! I do have a spare rear bumper, complete with parking sensor kit, but it needs a spray job, but the buyer is welcome to it.

Anyway, the car started life as a Club SE, and over the years I have added bits and changed bits to bring the spec up to a connie and a bit more! The bits I have added are:


Heated washer jets (with a thermal switch to turn them on below 5 degrees)
Puddle lights (Rover logo on fronts, LEDs on rears)
Heated leather seats with memory
Cruise control
Wood steering wheel
Auto-dim mirror
Sunblind (electric)
FBH telephone remote (courtesy of French Mike)
Reverse camera (did not stop me reversing into a pole)
Cubby hole power point
Real wood dash
Torpedo badges
Full size Union spare

Some photos:

First the car itself:

The front bumper;



The interior:




The radio and mapping function:



I have plenty more photo's of the scratches on the drivers side door and wheel arches, but all of these could be sorted out quite cheaply to give a really outstanding car.

I am looking at £1400, however if a buyer wishes to discuss removing some of the bits I can re-use such as the radio/sat nav then I will reduce the price accordingly.

Hi, can't see the mileage listed or remaining MOT / tax?

[steve811]

Sorry, mileage is 118K, tax til the end of July and Mot til Feb 2015!

[steve811]

Ok, as a member has pointed out, my price was a bit optimistic! Reduced to £1200!

[steve811]

OK, any (sensible) offers?

[steve811]

OK, now found a replacement car, and will be removing the radio and re-fitting the original Rover unit (Harmony). So any offers in 4 figures considered!

[steve811]

Have now removed the radio and refitted the Harmony unit, as well as removed the Bluetooth. It goes on Ebay soon with a reserve of £1000.

[steve811]

Now on EBay, reserve is £950, but will give £50 discount to members. Also forgot to mention the car has had the EGR gutted and has a fully working FBH (not it's needed yet).

[steve811]

Re-listed on Ebay, reserve now £850!

[steve811]

Well, it looks like this will not sell! If any members are interested please make (sensible) offers!
