The fleet are polished up
After the sandy storms we’ve been having, the Rover fleet needed a good clean.
Pictured is a 214sei, a rare sight, it has only 34,000 miles on it and is in great condition . Next is my 75, which if you watch my YouTube videos you’ll be familiar with it, and the progress I’ve made so far on it. It’s a project car, my first car and has just under 99,000 miles. And my dads 25 which he’s had from new, it was recently resprayed and has 170,000 miles on it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

170000 miles on the 25 is a tribute to your dad looking after it and also his clearly mechanically sensitive driving style. Nice collection and looking good.

He said thanks Edward. It’s gone through 2 head gaskets but still going strong. Went to a scrap yard the other day to get a piece for the door, there was a 25 with 30,000 miles and it’s head gasket had gone. The right person would’ve repaired it...so sad. Rovers are complicated but great and need good owners like people on here, my dad treasures his 25 and is doing checks, tests and improving it every single day. Whilst also keeping it stock too.
