Rover 75 Connoisseur‎ SE owned from new *Sold* - Page 9

I'll do my very best.

I'm actually petrified about taking on such a beautiful car, and will welcome any and all support from my fellow members. It will continue to be used daily, and the bairns will not be eating anywhere near it.

Can't wait for that drive back up to Fife...

Sounds like there has been a happy ending.:-)
It looks absolutely stunning.
I hope it gives you as much pleasure in the future as the original owner.

Congrats on the sale.

I'm sure it will. As soon as I saw this 75 I was drawn in, and I've pulled out pretty much every stop to get it... including doubling our budget.

There have been some very interesting domestic negotiations over the last fortnight...

Alls well that ends well then.
I am sure that a new love affair (with the 75) is just beginning.

Once I got mine the journey to and from work has changed from a chore to a pleasure that shows no sign of dimming.
I wish you many miles of happy motoring.
Boy she does look a beauty!

A real credit to the original custodian.

Rich400 has looked after that car beautifully. A very hard act to follow.

I'm so excited to drive it.
