Looking for a good daily and came across this

https://www.gumtree.com/p/rover/imma...el-/1414207568

owner knows nothing of history and wondering if anybody here has knowledge of the car- very little mileage covered in last 4 years.

Would prefer a pre facelift but priority at the minute is for one in good condition, automatic or manual with recent clutch change by one of the gurus on here... any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Nice contemporary SE motor there.

63k on the clock, seems a good one to me.

Price a bit steep for a mk2 mind being a diesel auto, but they're nice seats (had a mk2 contemporary myself but prefer the mk1)

Hi joe
The reg looks familiar, I’m sure it’s been in at me for a visit, many years ago though.

It isn't, even on my Contemporary SE.
