When you say cheap..... Suppose it’s all relative.

There was a V8 ZT on Autotrader around 2 weeks ago - they were asking £18,995...

You would need to pay me double that to take it off your hands, and why does it have a mystery wheel in the middle of the caramac rattledash??

Why they didn't swap over the V8 blanking plate for the thumbwheel is a mystery, though.....

It works as it should on the Rover 75 version of the V8, well it did on the one I used to own #670. Last edited by J1MBO; 17th May 2018 at 08:15.. |

Some of the Starspokes (on the car in question) were & the 18" Vortex wheels were definitely diamond cut.
As far as I recall & as already said, the venting system on the R75 V8 was pretty much like all the other 75's/ZT's etc with only the 260 eliminating the rear vent & dashboard thumbwheel. Last edited by mh007; 17th May 2018 at 09:13.. |
