Just wanted to say hi!

UpCheckOneTwo · 25th April 2010, 16:37

The missus and I just acquired a Rover 75 Connoisseur 2.5 SE Auto in the week and whilst researching the good and bad points of this model we found you good people.

We are simply dumbfounded by the car we have on our driveway for the pricely sum of £1200. On going to see the car I couldn't give the guy the money quick enough.

We have admired 75's from afar for a few years and always thought about it but with my job I was always in a position to get hold of brand new cars at a very good rate. We decided this year to be different and buy a used car and see how we fared.

In the true sense of Rovers old advertising slogan we are not Millionaires but driving through the Bedfordshire countryside today we certainly felt like one.

Hope all is well,

Steve. (UpCheckOneTwo).

well done, you have a lot of car for comparatively little money, lots to learn and find on here to keep your motor in tip top condition, so stick around and as said consider subscribing

Good for you Steve. I was going to buy a big motorbike for the summer before falling for the Rover 75. It does make you feel special. Subscribe to the club. You'll then feel like a millionare in the know.
Take care. Jay.

Thanks for the welcome folks. I think a tenner is a bargain. As they say.. 'you can't put a price on experience.'

Hi UpCheckOneTwo

to the club.

Make sure you check your Plenum drains, I was told to do this when I joined, and when I checked them they were blocked, if I had not checked them it would of cost quite a bit if the water got to the ECU.

Cheers

John
