I'll get round to it soon I hope. A certain Green member has offered his assistance.

Had a day off work to see Nick at Austin Garages today who fitted a Blue illuminated IPK and Clock along with TrafficMaster (from Les at SMC). He built up a proper loom for it too!


Very nice! Getting to look more like an Airbus cockpit

Flip me, mine costs 22850 quid BEFORE adding the cost of the Apex wheels and tyres onto it.

And I payed 2 grand for it only 7 years old. LOL. Win!

Lack of support from buyers for many in MGR and other Manufacturers ranges when new.

If no one buys them, no cheap runarounds for the rest.

To be fair, compared to America, 20K here is a rip off, you would have payed half that for a smiliar spec car in the USA.

20K would have bought you a decent Mustang FFS.

With the dealer fit extra's to the Saloon around £31,000.

The Tourer was fairly standard when I got it, around £22,000 when new.

Bought at 9 and 7 years old respectively for less than £6,000 for the pair, bargain

John, at least you and I and a few other members did our bit to support MG

Rover when they were trading.

The list price for my 75 in June 2004 was £24,500 and after a bit of haggling

paid £16,400. I thought at the time it was a bargain and was very happy with

the deal.

The Duotone option was only £750, considering that metalic paint was a £450

extra, the two tone finish only cost extra £300.

True, according to Reebs first post, mine would have been at 30315 GBP. However, since she's a Sterling Pack series, most of the options were bundled and gave way for a lower price. With the GBP conversion rate at that time, this would have made 42000 Euros, but I got for around 33000 Euros after some haggling and due to the fact that she used to be the dealer's personal and demo car... Still consider it a bargain as the dealer was proposing a diesel with manual transmission and less toys for 3000 Euros more...
