Default WANTED: Rover 75 for breaking

I am thinking about getting a couple of 75's for breaking for you good people, quite like the idea of recycling parts, so if you know of any or see any on your travels at a good price please let me know

I had the same idea then took a trip to Rover Breakers saw the scale of their operation and the overheads and decided not to bother as I could not achieve an hourly rate return to make it worthwhile.

You may do better on that side of the country though especially if you have storage space etc not sure how these cars get bought in the trade I guess to get the best cars you need to be on several insurance companies notification lists so you get to offer to buy vehicles they have written off etc.


good luck

I am bidding on this one for breaking, if you look closely at the photo it looks like it might have the door handle finishers fitted

Fingers crossed :lol:

If they are chrome handle finishers Les, you might get crushed in the stampede, and for the wooden wheel as well, and the green seats, and the......... 220,000k only just run in.
