Boy oh boy was it a great decision.

drop links, bearings, all bushes, ball joints suspension arms.... ripped out and totally replaced with brand new stuff.

my god its like driving a brand new 2002 02 plate Rover 75 again. what a difference, i have slowly started to give this car a overall of components, such exhaust , fuel tank straps, as mentioned above, four new tyres... etc

I thought i really do like the Rover 75 alot! it has to have now whilst the parts are available. theres NOTHING AND I MEAN NOTHING ON THE ROAD Like the ROVER 75! PERIOD.

looked back at it yesterday and thought my god it still looks the dogs!! even with winter paint dirt all over it..... the double headlamps..chrome peaking through, those heavy steel chromed handles to the doors the serpents the huge viking badge on the front grille.. no MISTAKE A ROVER.. Not just any Rover "the 75"

Prefer it to the Jag then
