Default Rover 75 Connoisseur SE Auto CDT - Spares and Repairs

It is with much sadness that I advertise my 75 for spares and repairs.

Up until around 18 months ago, it was my daily drive and very much my pride and joy. The automatic gearbox lost drive one night and I took it into a local garage who said the oil had a burnt smell to it. Had intentions on changing the oil and getting it on a diagnostic machine, but alas circumstances mean I need to let it go.

I last started it around 4 months ago and the engine turned over straight away. I would predict it probably needs a new battery now to get it running. Over the years I have fitted it with the following:

- Projector headlights with xenon conversions
- Full chrome grill
- Brand new Midnight blue bumper (does have scratches and marks on it now)
- Rover 75 mats
- Rover warning triangle and glove set
- 3 spare Contour alloy wheels (will need new tyres)

It has had the following work with minimal mileage added since:
- New front bushes
- New ABS sensor
- New front shock absorber
- Passenger wishbone arm
- OEM rear exhaust

Being an SE it has the following as standard:
- Charcoal black leather interior.
- Cruise control/rear sunblind
- OEM detachable Rover towbar

It is located at my previous address, just outside of Liskeard, Cornwall and will need to be towed off the driveway and onto a transporter of sorts. Mileage as I recall is around 172k. I have included photo's of it in better days, obviously it is feeling much more sorry for itself now. The private number plate will be removed.

I am asking for offers as close to £250 as possible.

Any questions, please ask, but as I am away from the car at the moment, they will be answered by memory.
