Default S392 Deh The Deal Is Done.....

Dave cooper one of the newest members to joIn the Rover 75 club..asked St1ng to come along with a mechanic and check over a possible purchase of one of the earliest Rover 75's still on the road from 1998 and only 10 chassis numbers behind S525 OVP which is 1147 & S392 DEH is 1157.

A customer of St1ng's Chris baghurst of his own MG Rover servicing garage was asked to come along and check this 12 year old beauty out!!!!

Chris who has worked on Rovers for 20 years said it " it was the cleanest, beautiful conditioned and well maintained engine of the 2.0 litre type he has seen for ages" .The car with only 23000 miles from brand new and with rubber rover mats to the boot also factory options....ummmh nice.Also boasting power folding mirrors....


Here are some shots of this fantastic conditioned car S392 DEH 1998.













AND ONE VERY HAPPY MAN..DAVE COOPER NEXT TO HIS PRIDE AND JOY...

Someone I know or should I say knew locally had a 2.5 Conn SE. The registration was S*** AOX. A Birmingham registration. The car was Copperleaf Red with Aubergine interior. Guess this would also be a very early one. The car and the owner have 'dissappeared' Has anyone seen it anywhere?
