Now that I have found one that is quite reasonable I'd like advice on where to go for parts and service near Paris. Straight away I need to deal with the following problems:

-Replace glass in left hand side mirror.
-handbrake not doing much at all.
-dash monitor with lines through it.
-change computer language from German to French or English.

Despite all these problems it was actually the best of around 20 that I viewed here. Seems in top condition otherwise.

Many thanks in advance, Alexander.
You'll find answers to all your questions in the main forum.

Hello

I'am a new member from TOULOUSE, I just bought my first 2005 Rover 75 TOURER CDTI, 3 weeks ago, it's connoisseur SE .
It was a Netherland car at first, but the computer let the choice between German or English language.
The must is to drive with the english spoken GPS.
definitivly, I love that car.
...but a little bit different from my triumph Spitfire,in fact !
Regards

I lived in France for many years during the 1990's, just south of Tours in the Loire valley. At that time I took my P6 3500 with me, was hell of a job to get it French registered, lots of paperwork and had to go to the service des mines to pass its approval. The douanes wanted to charge me 20% import duty based on the then current value of a brand new Rover 800 Sterling, rather than the actual value of the car itself!! Seems the system is a lot easier these days.

I have made many attempts to speak to you.

I have left lots of info on your request for French information.

Please contact me, even if it's just to say you don't require the info any more.

Bonjour et merci de l'accueil !!

Mais si je comprend bien ...il va falloir que je m'exprime en Anglais pour que ce soit lisible par tous ?? va y avoir du copier/collé avec le traducteur Google !!Car mon anglais date des années 60 ...alors ...c'est pas comme le vélo , ça revient pas vite !! ça m'occupera , je suis à la retraite !!
