Rover 75 V8 SE - LPG - £7495 ono
Tempest Grey
104,000 miles
Sheffield, S13
07809 one two five 704
I've had the car about 6 months and about 4 thousand miles. It's a nice car but I've never really gelled with it, I've got one of my SD1s roadworthy again so I'm moving this on. It's Tempest Grey with a black interior, Hi-Line nav without HK, good but not perfect throughout... about right for a looked after 104k mile car. The LPG kit is a Romano based system and works fine, it has a 60 or 70 litre tank which lasts 200-240 miles. The only problem is the infamous heater valve, you all know the score with them though. It operates by hand and everything else (including the AC) works fine.
It's about due an oil service (in 600 miles), I'm willing to negotiate if you want to buy it before.
It has Apex alloys which are a bit scruffy to be honest, I'd get them refurbished if I were keeping it. It does benefit from Kuhmo tyres I had fitted 3k miles ago.
I bought it from the chap who runs KMaps, he put the Zero backboxes on and remapped it. I don't know how it compares to a normal 75 V8 but it certainly goes alright!
