Went for £10651. Looked very nice. Encouraging price for other V8 owners

 I average 24-25 with the ZT, but assumed the automatic box in the Rover would drop that around 3 mpg. I confess to never checking consumption on a long run, but with fuel at almost £2/litre, I'm not planning long runs in the car just now.  |

My automatic ZT-T 260 (same as 75 V8) usually does around 20-21 mpg. The best I've achieved, with a very light foot, was 24.

Yes, a lovely looking car. They're holding their values but that seemed quite a reasonable price for the buyer.
I would definitely want a Rover if l ever bought one, which is extremely unlikely.
