Good morning Paul, thank you for your message AOX, what’s the story there and is it a club member who is doing the work? Can you please remind me, how many early Rover 75’s have you had? Anyway 10/10 for trying to save AOX

Hi Phil


this is the second one i lost the first one as he wanted a lot of money for storage so lost that one and the mg i had. No not a forum member someone i found but what he said will need a lot of money spending on it to bring it back maybe £2000 i hope not but been standing for over 8 years so i guess a lot will be wrong with it now.

Good morning Paul, for £2,000 I’d want someone carrying out the repairs who knows our cars - a club member. I have learnt from a bad and expensive experience never to use a non member again for the big jobs. What about asking Lates who did OVP, before you get in too deep. Positive thoughts
