Moonstone Rover 75 / MG7 / Roewe hybrid turbo diesel project

Robson Rover Repair · 29th March 2015, 02:15

What had planned to be me giving advise to a neighbours friend about his 75 to get it MOT ready ended up with the car being abandoned into my care.

What turned into a few tips ended up with springs snapping in front of us as car was parked up, a list of mot faults and in his eyes between recovery and rescue car was heading to scrap yard.

I stepped in, I mean it is on my door step and now it's my plan to rescue it. One of many plans lol.

2002 Connie SE 2.0 cdt manual with sea green interior.

I see it's got Low-Line Sat Nav, Rain Sensing Wipers, and Serpent alloys (except the space saver), a nice spec on that one

Yes good spec sadly the only way the car can say is if I sell the serpants to put towards the car to cover costs as wife says it can stay as long as I cover it with buy and sell parts from other cars. I've 3 wheels provisionally already. Lol.

Love that interior, Colin. These cars really are heart-string tuggers, aren't they?
