Hi I am a Motor trader who always drove rovers, mainly 800 sterling and vitesse cars I bought a 406 years ago estate to sell on and because my family were heading away on a holiday. It was realy nice. My Dad then bought one and he has just upgraded to a nice top line 130BHP with leather and all the goodys so I thought Why not....
So I spotted two at the auctions One was just out of my range and the other was a high milage 200K 110 with aircon and CD Changer, on a T reg 99, £600 pounds with 300 miles worth of fuel in the tank. I have just ordered the tow bar and plan on fitting it soon.
I am keeping this as my own car as its big enough to fit the car tools and all my junk in as well as being nice to drive.
anyway Thats me. Hope to be able to help you all out in the future. My latest rovers going under the hamme on ebay LOL dont care too much I have a real nice big car thats cheap to run and should once fixed have some pulling power.
Its been owned by a vicar sine 2002 and serviced more then a lady of the manor, pity he didnt know what polish was. LOL.
