Very, very elegant and tasteful Alex. I love the Deep Sea Green interior.
I see that it originally came from the same dealer as mine did; Averill's of Diss. Simon

That's a lovely car .
Mine's BRG with the Deep Sea Green interior, so I might be a bit biased. . Hope to see you at a Nano quite soon - even if the headlights don't look as if they need polishing . Take care. |

A beautiful, timeless design that the Rover stylists got 100% right first time, you've got a lovely example there that you should be very proud of
I can't put my finger on it, but the early cars just seem to have a certain quality about them that was lost as time went on.

I love little details such as the dealer number plates. It even has the original dealer tax disc holder. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

That's a classy looking colur combo. And the serpent wheels just set it off a treat. Nice buy Alex

I’m “green” with envy. What a lovely example.
Get the cam belts done if not already done just to be on the safe side. |

The best interior exterior combination in the 75 range by a mile. Just stunning.
