Rover 75 CDTI Club Tourer SE manual, 53 plate ** SOLD**
I don't need an estate car any longer (wife has a Berlingo) so I'm selling my tourer and looking for a Connoisseur saloon. The car is silver with 61000 on the clock, stamped service book from new, 6 months MOT, 5 months tax, new rear springs, new clutch master cylinder, Kenwood radio/CD player. Regd Feb 2004, Clean car with a few stone chips. £2300 (reduced from £2900), I would consider P/X with similar connie saloon.
Please PM me SOLD Last edited by Germanlemon; 17th January 2012 at 17:57.. Reason: E-mail removed as per Club Policy. |

Thanks cabbers, early days yet. I have my eye on a connoisseur advertised here, I hope it does not go before I sell mine. My location means that, judging by posts on the forum, most buyers and sellers are some distance from where I live. I've picked up a few tips on here, yesterday I managed to clean out the passenger side plenum with the did of a wet and dry vacuum cleaner. The cleaner hose was too fat to get into the gap (I left the filter in situ) so I taped a couple of feet of garden hose to it and cleared it out. There was surprising little muck down there and the pipe bender went down the tube easily, I think the garage may have cleaned it when the filter was changed.
I did post a question a few days ago about the pros and cons of manual versus auto gearboxes on 75s but so far have not had a reply. Any guidance would be appreciated. |

i have a 75 v6 club manual and until last week i also had a 75 cdt connie se auto and i must admit on long journeys the auto box is a lot better then a manual box. but all in all i dont mind the manual box either, it all depends on what you want. plus remember on the auto you wont have the clutch problems you get on the manual but i have to admit i have had my v6 manual since july and have had no problems with the clutch |

any autobox is more to repair then a manual, and you get less mpg if you have auto and i believe the tax is more as well. so my advice to you is if money is tight go for a manual as autos cost more to buy, cost more to repair, use more fuel and cost more to tax |
