Looks quite an easy fix, not my cup of tea if I'm honest as it's a saloon, but I could see someone making themselves a nice looking car.

That is a very nice car .
But the bigger picture is this . A rover 75 accident damaged for £1495 . .
It goes to show that the 75 is becoming more in demand.
I do realize it's a certain edition of 75 . But as they dwindle off the road every MOT time for the none enthusiast they all become a certain limited edition.
Let's keep them going

Great message!

75s and ZTs are extremely ahead of their time. I’m 17, and have a Connoisseur I’m doing up as a project. My friend just bought a 12 plate Astra (quite high spec) for £1700 and my 75 has more features on it. As well as a better and nicer ride, confort and all round luxury. The 75 even gets better MPG 😎

This is no insult towards the Astra, it’s a great car. And I understand it wasn’t made for the same market or purpose as the 75 but still nice to see the 75 can beat modern cars.

Doesn't look too bad and SEs are rare as it is, I suspect the issue with it was the paint repair not being cheap with it being a monogram colour - although does look just like a replacement bonnet, slam panel etc. I suppose you might be able to pick up a replacement bonnet and bumper if needed or someone in the business might pick it up.

Got to be easier to colour match as it's never the same colour twice anyways.
