2004 Rover 75 1.8 Classic SE

2Diesels · 27th March 2015, 10:56

I'm offering for sale a 2004 75 1.8 Classic SE with coachwork finished in White Gold (GMN) & trimmed in Ash Grey Oxford Velour with Ash Grey/Light Smokestone trim (LBB) & stands on a set of well shod ZT120 17" five spoke alloy wheels.

The car has covered just over 87,000 miles & has had 4 registered keepers from new, the first two being within the first twelve months, the previous keeper having had the car since 2010.

The 1.8 engine sounds sweet & pulls well & the car in general drives as it should with no unwanted rattles or clonks & the brakes are very good with what appears to be recently replaced discs & pads all round.

The Specifications of the car are more or less standard Classic SE with the addition of the wheels & front fog lamps. I have added one or two little touches to enhance the appearance of the car such as 1.8 Litre "Torpedo" badges to the doors, early style rear pillar finishers with badges & early style rear number plate plinth featuring the embossed ROVER lettering.

The car has just been serviced & a new "Gates" timing belt kit fitted. I have also fitted the "Arctic" modified handbrake compensator. The current MOT expires in August 2016.

The air conditioning is frosty cold after a recent regas.

The wheels have some kerbing, one in particular though I have touched this in in the correct shade of Sparkle Silver.
There is a small cigarette burn in the driver's seat backrest.
Someone seems to have used the steering wheel centre badge as a horn push as the badge is dented.

I am asking £950.00
Please PM me with any questions

I have seen this and I can confirm it is a very good looking car , well worth a look

I have seen this in the flesh as well when Colin was giving it a good service. It's a very clean car with no nasty dings with good glossy paintwork.

I would have this tomorrow if....

it wasn't so far away
if I didn't already have fifteen cars
if I could get hold of the vendor

Seriously, having seen the car, it is a nice cared for example that everything works on, and you wouldn't go far wrong at the price.

Buy from the dealer you can trust... Stirling MG

I've also seen this car.

It's a well looked after example and a veritable bargain at that price.

Merry Easter and all that
