Wanted! My First Rover 75....andygy

[ANDYGY]

Hi Folks.....dissapointed with my first attempt to buy a Rover 75, 2.0 ltr Diesel Club SE, 53 Plate.........travelled 60 miles (3/4 of the way ) to a seller who called me to say he had JUST discovered he couldn`t put the car into gear with engine running and is getting back to me! A wasted day! So....i`ve joined the Club!!

I wish to Spend £2000 (ish)

Any advice! Anyone selling?

Must be diesel! Can travel...live in Lincolnshire.

Thanks

There are lots on autotrader, go for one more than £2k and make an offer, the CDTi is a bit more powerful then the CDT.

Find one and post details on here for opinions, dony worry too much about mileage as engine is considered bulletproof although ancillary bits do wear so go for lowest mileage you can afford, make sure you test drive enough to warm up the engine and check that it restarts when warm as can be problems with fuel pumps, cam sensor and injector leak back. Check the plenums and look for service history, one currently for sale on the forum

Good luck welcome to the club and what kept you getting one of these great motors ?

Hello,

Just went through a two day ordeal of buying a replacement car for my Rover 75 Tourer. I am now the proud owner of a 2002 Rover 75 CDT Connoissuer SE Auto diesel. It makes a humming noise in the back tyres though...hope it's nothing serious...help?

Anyway, anyone who needs a similar one - I have done an EXCEL worksheet listing who and where and what. There are 13 cars on it - all from different sources. Makes interesting reading if nothing else.

So if you are still looking for a Rover 75, PM me and I shall send you my Worksheet with the latest availibilites and you can see.

I am not a dealer and I am not getting commission for anything - I just like to spare someone the hard work of spending hours trawling the net.

Oh - we did go down to one dealer in London is see a car - and it was BAD - have noted that in the list as well.
