Default Just for the fun of it - V8 Tourer for sale anywhere?

I know, I know, I know. I think I have seen somewhere that only 16 of them were ever built. I don't expect to come across one for sale, I just thought I throw it out there if anyone knows of those owners who might now be ready to move on. Just sayin'...

If it is a Rover 75 V8 Tourer that you want then yes I think 16 is near the right figure or is the right figure!

Easier to buy a MG ZTT and Roverise it, but you wont get the auto box unless you are prepared to spend a lot...

There is a Rover 75 V8 Tourer near me I have seen a few times, but have yet to acost the driver as yet!

Axel, afaik the figure of 16 is a calculated guess based on the normal production ratio of 1 tourer to 10 saloons - I'd heard that 14 was probably nearer the mark

Nice, my dream one would be in Chatsworth with monogram duo-tone leather

Never seen one in the flesh so to say - last one I saw for sale was a couple of years ago on the internet - didn't have the finance at the time or it would have been mine even though it was Black.

Mmmm V8 sofa wagon.

These will be and must already be classics just by the fact there were so few produced. V8 75 Tourer would definitely be a keeper.

Odd, would have expected it to be pretty clean considering the owner

And I have had my eye on it for a couple of years as well
