Should I? Chatting with Reebs didn't help!
So as many members know I've owned Rovers all my life and my last 75 was outstanding even if I say so myself, full spec with ALL the accessories and all the cost cutting measures introduced by Rover brought back.
I'm playing with a Jaguar XJ6 3.0 all bells and whistles at the moment and again brought up to spec. Plus I still have the Bentley Brooklands. I've found an amazing independent Jaguar dealer near Weston-super-Mare, my second home. The car is off there next week to have its final session of replacing major parts. Being retired with time on my hands toying with another 75 is causing me to itch It would have to be a 2.5 V6 connoisseur se of impeccable quality, they seem thin on the ground these days. Gosh may have to pay subs again

Yeah still alive guys.
My fear is, is there enough walnut & chrome still around Oh gosh, walnut handbrake, embossed headrests, walnut steering wheel, heko wind deflectors. Could I go through it all again Oh and must be pre face-lift. Just my personal preference of course

Good to see you back posting again Phil. Still not used to seeing you appear as a blue, I have to take a double take as I still tend to associate you as a green.

I saw - and admired - your 75 at the Duxford national shortly after I joined this fine club.
