Cool Rover 75 Connoisseur SE 2.0 Diesel 160, Royal Blue - *** NO LONGER AVAILABLE ***

Hi

I’ve decided to move on my daily car for the past 3 years. This car is the first 75 I’ve ever owned and is what introduced me to these cars and to this wonderful club. Although, I have been a member for much longer, I only really mingled with the crowd after purchasing it.

The reason for sale is this morning, my clutch went again after having this replaced just two years ago. All checks have been carried out and it’s 99% certain that the slave has failed. The master cylinder is bone dry and all pipe work have been checked for any leaks. A lot of blood, sweat and tears have been poured into this car but it’s now time for me to call it a day...

Car is located in Fife, scotland. It will be available from 2-3 weeks time when time allows.

This car is free to a good home but I will choose who gets it from any potential candidates. I would like to see the car saved and let someone else enjoy it.

Below is the spec of my car along with a list of all work carried out since I’ve owned it. Any bits added to the car below are INCLUDED. The bits I’m removing will not be listed below. The car will be sold completely standard as it was. Any bits that I’ve added will get removed, or at least most of them.
