Great car & great guy
Yesterday my partner & I travelled by train from South Yorkshire to Great Yarmouth to see/buy a 75 from Roverbarmy AKA Mike.
What a horrendous journey it was. We were let down by the local taxi company to begin with and then by rail staff giving us inaccurate information regarding train times etc. Give me car travel anyday!
We left home at 8.45 am and arrived in GY at 3.15 we changed trains 4 times and had waits between each of up to 50 mins.
Mike was waiting for us when we arrived and I got my first sight of the 75 we had come to see and what a beauty she is. The drive to Mike's home confirmed my first impression and over a welcome cuppa with Mike and his wife, the deal was done.
The Rover is a Club spec car with a number of nice additions and has the 2.0 V6 and auto box. I have previously owned a 2.5 which is quicker but the 2.0 is so smooth and cruises effortlessly.
The drive home was in complete contrast to our train journey and we covered the 170 miles or so in total comfort.
Looking around it more closely today and I am very happy with my purchase which is a credit to Mike for his care and attention to detail in looking after what is a 22 year old car and as a result it is in exceptional condition.
A BIG BIG thanks Mike and I hope you can find a replacement that you will be as happy with in the future.
