2002 Rover 75 Club SE 1.8 manual, silver *SoLD* - Page 2

I too have seen this motor Ron, it really is a belter! The transformation - beautiful Swan from Ugly Ducking - is a testament to Rich's hard-work, knowledge and enthusiasm. The body work is straight, and the interior lovely and clean.

As a Club SE it enjoys an enticing spec (Sunroof, CD Changer, Parking Sensors etc) and forms the basis of an ideal 'upspec' motor if that appeals. I actually like the velour interior (it really is warm and welcoming) and know it has the looms in-situ for those wishing to add heated electric leather.

All-in-all for the asking price it is a thoroughly well-sorted motor - with all of the usual maladies remedied - if you know of anyone seeking a luxury, affordable turn-key motor...this is the one!

Sid, I agree with everything you have said but I believe it is bereft of Parking Sensors.

Oops, I see my enthusiasm got ahead of my knowledge...it's a good job Rich's never does!

Indeed there are no parking sensors.

The loom is present for a retrofit though.

Having purchased a car from Rich, I know the amount of work along with care he puts into restoring a car. Mine has been wonderful and I'm sure this car is too!

vindaloo · 2nd August 2015, 17:57

Now fitted with Chrome bullet mirror covers according to the other thread.

rich17865 · 2nd August 2015, 18:07

Yes indeed, engine repairs due tomorrow evening, watch this space, still planning on the car being ready for Saturday

rich17865 · 4th August 2015, 22:22

Right oh guys and girls, this car is now running and is running well following a headgasket change.

I have driven a good few miles in it today, it is smooth and quiet.

An aircon regas and mot is booked in for Friday, so the car is available Friday evening onwards.

It is taxed and insured, test drives welcomed, it is a fantastic car, not to be missed, especially when taking into consideration the work done.

£1,095 or nearest offer

rich17865 · 5th August 2015, 20:36

No reasonable offer refused.

If nobody wants to even put an offer in for this great fault free car, there seems little point in saving these cars.
