Russian's Rover

Rover-SPB · 2nd April 2012, 21:21

Hello my friend's and clubmates!

I beg your pardon in advance for the bad english, because I live in Russia in St. Petersburg and the main foreign language in my French

My name is Paul, now i am 22 years. I'm a student and i like cars, books and vintage brick mobile phones (i have a small collection- 185 pieces, If anyone has old cell phones, and they are ready to send them to Russia, ready to buy)
Since childhood I have loved British classic cars - Jaguar, Mini, Austin and Rover (SD1 and P5B))))
In the Rover 75 I fell in love 10 years ago, but was able to buy it only after nine years (in 2011).
In our town is very small Rover's and facelifr Rover-about ten or twelve. I was looking for a car 3 months and bought it for 10 000$ (6300 GPB).
My Rover is 2004 and have 1.8 engine (120 hp), colour- Damson Red (CEB),equipment connoisseur

In our city, two service stations, which are engaged in repair Rover and sometimes a headache to repair my 75

By the way, in St. Petersburg also has a Rover Club, small club

Finally some pictures my 75

And Rover Club Saint-Petersburg)))

Welcome to the club! Your English is certainly better than my Russian

It’s nice to see examples of the 75 so far away from the UK still going strong too.

It is a pleasure to know that the 75 has serious followers, welcome. I also agree that your English is 1000% better than my Russian

Thanks, but still photos are not as good (old camera).
There so much useful information that I will be reading the forum all night

Welcome Paul,

You have a very nice car there - Damson Red is a lovely colour and suits the car well.

Great to see your Club photos - even with only a few Rovers there, you still got a great turn out!! Flying the flag for Rover in Moscow

I hope Wednesday goes well - as has been said, lots of information here to help you

That's unfair, his English is better than most of the British forum members
