Not Sure If Chatsworth or Not?

clf · 25th September 2019, 21:32

I know a lot of people like Chatsworths, THIS one looks like it to me, but I thought they were all facelifted? and it could be simply a combination of the shadow and the foliage reflecting on it making it look so?

Thought I would post 'just in case' it was and was of interest to someone? (the ad and seller have nothing to do with me.

The example of a car in Chatsworth on 'the many colours....' thread is a pre-facelift (although it's a ZT rather than a 75).

So it is a Chatsworth.

There's also a Black Olive LWB fully loaded with personal line interior and 'Classic' style seats

But it does need a helluva tidy up! (a lot of cash though - I would want it cleaned up though at least for that money and miles).

Defo a chatsworth, and probably the worst monogram colour they did, and I should know!
The only good thing about the colour is it is the same colour as road scum, so mine never needed washing. Always looked exactly the same whether it had just been washed or hadn't been washed for 12 month...

There are far worse colours than chatsworth!

Going by sales, I think it's the most popular monogram colour.

I like chatsworth but personally find it only really suits a mkii with a premium bumper fitted, looks fantastic on the rover 75 v8s.

Raven Black · 26th September 2019, 14:32

wish I could afford either of them.

My Chatsworth ZT is a 2003 Mk1. When I bought it, I didn't like it, but it has grown on me (slightly!).
