Default Old English White Club SE

Hi there, I'm new to this forum but have been looking for a nice 75 for the last few months. I managed to purchase an immaculate Old English White 75 just before Christmas. It's only had 3 ownwers 2 had the car for 17 years and I bought her off an old gent who had hungered after this car from the other 2 gents since the car was new. The car has always been garaged therefore she's immaculate inside and out. The old gent (LAST KEEPER) only had the car for 8 weeks, and only sold it because he drove an automatic all his life and with failing hearing could not hear when to change gear or remember to dip the clutch at a junction or traffic light, so kept stalling her. The engine inside the cabine is as quiet as a ticking watch.

She is now under blankets within my garage (house) in Swansea South Wales which is where she will stay, until the summer months.

My car is registration W813OSS. A 2.0 V6 CLUB SE

Regards Phil

Hello Phil, welcome to the club! Your car sound lovely. I shall add her to my list! Have you any pictures?

In fact, if people would like, I could add a gallery to the register of our cars. What do you think?

Hi don't know if this link will work below but if it does then this is my new baby. Had her just before Xmas for 550, I have now bought a set of serpent wheels for her which I will get refurbished soon, and sorted out the boot switch, it was as the old gent said a wire broken of behind the switch. Regards Phil,

PS if the link below doesn't work can you please let me know how to load some of my own photos.

Hi, do you want me to add it to the register? If so can you PM me your reg please? Any photos of her? I see you are only in Derby, so not far from me! Maybe I'll see you someday! My car is also a 1.8 and currently having the engine replaced, so sadly not on the road, but hopefully soon!

I know of 2 old english white 75s here in Perth Western Australia, one was a 2001 car , the other was a 2003 i think and both connies.
The later one was driven by the mgr dealer principal prior to the brand going under here.
Ive been looking for one but they seem to have gone to ground since being sold a few years ago and never been seen since.
Probably in a collectors shed some where.
