Cheap, and potentially interesting LWB
 

This looks like a curious car, being a 52 plate, but with lots of mark 2 bits. It's got mark 1 dials, but everything else appears to be mark 2. Having a B at the beginning of the reg might suggest that this has factory connections, and I imagine it could be very interesting indeed! Pity about the damage, but car which really needs to be preserved, in my opinion!

Yes an odd one, that paint damage is strange also

What a lovely car.:drool4:

Limousines seem to be a strange mix of parts. It almost seems as though Rover were learning as they went along :confused:

You can find complete pre-facelift cars, Mk. 1.5 cars with facelift fronts and pre-facelift rear bumpers, Mk. 1.5 cars with Premium Front Bumpers and pre-facelift rear bumpers, and full Facelift cars with either standard or Premium Front Bumpers. It must have been a real dogs breakfast :( What shall we fit today?

I'll have a punt on this one - unless anyone else wants it :confused:

Well let's hope that someone saves it, but I have to say that the amount of rust in the roof (where McNellie cut it in half) would concern me! :(

Would love to see it returned to it's Mk 1 original best with either Unions or Serpents! :)

Have to say that I would really want to see the roof before bidding on it, as that amount of rust scares me! :(

So realistically, with it needing a minimum of a roof paint, a set of bumpers and wheels and all the Nav components replacing in the boot, what does everyone think it's worth? :shrug:

I wonder why it was MoT'd on 12 May 2006 (and it passed) and then was MoT'd again on 30 Aug 2006.

Nut unusual... Maybe sold and the new owner wanted a full 12 month mot
