I searched for ''Rover 75 Steel Blue'' and found your car, tought the colour looked great on your car and it totally conviced me to have a look at our 75. Now I think it's one of the nicests colours you can have on a 75. It suits the car really well and makes the car look modern.

Your car looks great and I think it has most of the optional extras available at the time! Did you bought it like this or did u fit them afterwards?

The Crown alloys are for the winter on our car by the way, I have found a nice set of Serpent alloys for the summer. I like the look of the Crowns, but I think Serpents are even nicer.
Hi again Jarno,

Mine has all the optional extras available at her time ... and all were factory fitted. I never had to add anything afterwards. The only modifications I have done is the programming of the speed-locking doors at the dealer back in 2003!and adding the Bosch wiper blades 2 years ago. I wish she had Xenon lights like other luxury cars were fitted back in 2000 when I got her but it was not a deal breaker for me then (I could always have fitted them later - as she has the front lights power wash which is mandatory in France for Xenons - but I choose not to so far). Like yours, I am nearly at 93000kms. Also at first I wanted a darker colour but my wife insisted that these cars were better looking in lighter colours and I'm glad I listened to her for once... When I saw her at the dealer's, it was love at first sight and pure delight since then (July 2000)
