Quick update:
- It did turn out to be worn contacts. Fitted new ones and haven't had a single issue. Thank you, Greenman!
- My vehicle is a 2-owner UK registered vehicle that is currently in Ireland. We are moving back to the US after this school year, and I will not be taking the Rover with me. If anybody is interested in picking up a December 2002 Rover 75 Tourer (2.5 V6 British Racing Green with 69K on the clock and full service history), please let me know.
Despite the fact that the vehicle is in great shape and apparently very reliable it is worth absolutely nothing here in Ireland because of the UK reg (the cost to import it is prohibitive, plus tax rates are high because of the engine size). I'm a 15-minute drive from the Holyhead - Dublin ferry if somebody would like to bring it back to the UK, and selling it in Northern Ireland is also a good option, of course.
I'd love to see the car go to a good home, and will also contact Colin NI and try to make the Newcastle meet. Not looking for much money, a few hundred should do. it would be a pity to sell it as a junk car here in Ireland.
