for sale 2001 51 plate moonstone green tourer auto connoisseur *SOLD*

Hello people i have come to the realisation that i want a rover vitesse again.
The car in question is in good overall condition but as this is a 13 year old car there are dinks and scratches.

The front bumper has been changed and the colour match isnt 100%

The car has done 175,000 miles and is the diesel auto
Things done in my ownership
It has the 160bhp upgrade
Smiley numberplate
Silicone intercooler hose
Navall 1 double din with dash camera
full chrome grille
embossed headrests
2 new tyres
The car does smoke on full boost at high revs

The car has sandstone leather and the drivers seat is a little worn but by no means tatty

The car has a boot liner in so as to save the boot.
It comes with a history and alot of receipts to back up the work done.

There is a slight issue.

The engine vibrates but once you touch the throttle then it goes and it sounds like its coming from the rubber mount that looks like a big acorn.
Also the rear glass doesnt open.
The car pulls well and also comes with 2 keys

The car has MOT till february next year and if quick will have tax till the end of january next year.

Im asking £700 for all of this and here are some pictures.

Please bare in mind im in Plymouth Devon.

good looking car ....i'd buy it and rob the good stuff off it ( double din , chrome grill ) and put into my cars and then sell it on ....not ethical in some eyes , but just being honest ...sure someone is going to get a true bargain ...good luck with the sale.

That is a lovely looking car indeed. The colour is just perfect for a tourer. Had I not just purchased (a month ago) a saloon I would be interested.
