New Car! 75 Contemporary SE

AidenTingley · 30th November 2016, 09:30

Hi All,

About 2 years ago I had a 75 Con SE, dark green 'Arm Chair'. Wood dash, cream leather interior throughout.

Over all the cars I have had the rover was outstanding, I've had BMW 1 seires, Vectras, Zafiras, Skodas, Fords, Fiats and whole lot more.

My old Rove died 6 months after I had it due to some dodgy repairs to the front fuel pump *whoops on my behalf*

2 weeks ago I had a dream about that rover and how nice to was to drive.

So the next morning, I got on the internet, found this baby 150 miles away. Got a loan out to buy it, spent 4 hours on the train, bought it and drove home.

The next night I contact Chris with T4, who was less than 2 miles away from me. He looked it over and I quote "This car has been loved". It really was as good as the seller said.

Anyway, enough jibber. here she is:

Thoughts?

Current Issues

- Radio signal (Project Drive)
- TV is Analog

Current plans

- 160 Map
- Black Wheels
- Caliper paint
- Tint rear windows

Very nice.

Looks very nice, i would not paint the wheels black tho, reckon it would be too much Blackness. Having said that i have Black wheels on my Trophy Blue..

Agreed, they are the best wheels suited to the mk2 in my opinion and would look terrible black.

ziggy72 · 30th November 2016, 12:14

That looks very nice. Don't spoil the wheels by painting them black though, they look great standard and forget about tinting the windows also. Just my opinion.

Can't beat a bit of standard but then we all have different tastes.
