Thats a shame, shame he doesnt offer them up for sale where possible before crushing, quick buck i suppose

I just drove up to Liverpool from Leicester with the wife and never saw one, but I did see a very nice MG Sports in the MOTO service station after the A50 M6 Junction.

we have 9 parked in our yard at the moment and i have another 3 to pick up next week already they are coming out of the wood work down here now.end of last year i was struggling to find them we where travelling to cornwall devon etc to get them .

[cabbers]

well i went to my local co-op this morning and saw 3 75's on the road being driven, 2 75's on drives and there was a ZT parked on the co-op car park.

When i got home my neighbours daughter was getting into a very dirty and very tatty 75 taxi.

They are very common around here

Loads round here as well, most seem to be owned by middle aged ladies with lil dogs..

But the "real" centre for 75's seems to be Bournemouth.. Hundreds of em down there, and all those I have seen on garage forecourts are up for silly (high) prices?

I just had a blast out to the wensleydale creamery this arvo and passed plenty of rovers, was a convoy of Four at one point, me in my ZT, and a 75 saloon, a streetwise and a zt tourer in front of me.

I can remember thinking how rare they were when first launched,it seemed ages (1-2 years) before they became a relatively common site on our roads.

If you want to mention a modern Rover that is becoming almost extinct it is the 200 coupe.I recentlty drove from Derby to Dover and back twice and then to Harlepool and back and never spotted another one.The 75's and ZT's have a long way to go before they reach those danger levels.

I've seen quite a few ZTs in Leamington Spa oddly. Black, Trophy Blue and a fellow Solar Red.

The other peak seems to be in the North East (Newcastle / Sunderland area), seen loads there.
