Dorchester Red Rover 75/MG Hybrid

For sale is a really interesting car. It is a Rover 75 in about the best colour Rover ever did, Dorchester Red. It has had a makeover into a hybrid ZT/75

Now I am not usually a fan of these but it has really been done fantastic, it was done about the launch of the 75 V8 approx 2005 and really no expense was spared and done professionally. It has

Mk2 Back Bumper
After market reversing sensors
V8 Exhaust Trim
Duel X-power Exhausts
Privacy Glass
Side Skirts
Lowered Springs
Chrome front Mesh
DAB Digital Radio
Manual Green Leather Interior

The Exhaust system is a proper system. With both exhaust functioning with a central Y section into the rear OEM X-power exhausts. The Side Skirts are MG originals also. From memory I am the 3 owner but will check.

I have owned it about 12 moths really not driven it other than back and then every couple of weeks to keep it right. It has 12 months MOT, which I got last week.

It has done 117000 miles has had the belts done with receipt at 93500 and a good service history. No problems that I know of, a couple of loose bits of trim but that is about all. It will have a fresh oil change before a new owner has it also.

I am looking for £1100 ono

Here are some photos, it is a bit difficult to get really good ones due to dull days and crappy phone but it is a lovely thing and a real head turner. I will try and get some more photos' at the weekend or you are welcome to come and have a look.
