Rover 75 2.0 CDT Connoisseur SE 2001 - FSH- Now £950 **NOW SOLD**
Further to the original sale car now has:-
160 bhp remap (BigRuss) New viton o rings. Handbrake compensator (Arctics) EGR by pass fitted. Re sprayed Y forks. Filled with fully synth oil (Halfords) Coolant changed (Oat halfords) 4 x new Avon ZV 5's. New smiley number plate All new filters (except fuel) 2.0 CDT torpedoe's. c pillar badges. Short brake hoses replaced for MOT. 2 x new rear coil springs. Renault 5 stat fitted in top hose. General. Car drives really well Interior is fine (Neptune blue) A 'straight car' no different colour panels. Taxed till end Jan 2014 Mot is due Nov 10th 2014 Things to consider (Bad points) A 2 inch dent on top of NSF wing Both bumpers scuffed. Tiniest chip on bonnet As stated earlier, car runs fine, this is because that's all I've done, things to improve running and mpg. I have not clayed, cut or polished the car at all. I'm thinking the car is suitable for a refurbish, paint wise. Was going to do this but now buying a car with this work done. Now on 151k and I'm thinking it's worth £1000. so that is the price. Thanks for looking and obviously any questions welcome. Not good with pictures but will have a go if weather improves. Mods please edit as required, thanks.

Is it a manual? If so has the clutch been done and the master cylinders changed to the metal ones?. Had an offer on wife's mondeo so could be very interested in this if manual

It is a manual, no history on the clutch I'm afraid. 11 dealer stamps up to 136k but these are for services. Almost fully in to select a gear, almost halfway up to biting point. Whether this is normal I really don't know but there's no difficulty engaging/disengaging gears

Latest pics. Conn SE 2001 £1000
Sorry for the pic quality, really not too good at this but with the original pics it gives a good idea.

After driving a couple of hundred miles in a car that has a new clutch I can say it felt no different to the Conny SE I have for sale, so, I can sell with added confidence.

I really cannot understand how you still have this its a bargain at the price considering all the work that it's had done to it.

It's either the mileage or the fear of a clutch failing I think, it is indeed a lovely spec.
