I always find it strange when they show photos of the interior without opening the doors??? Surely if you have the key it's no hassle to unlock it and open the door? ??

Sounds a bit of a mongrel to me.

Says it's a mk1 converted to a mk2 (with a mk2 pack ????)

Also says it was "recalled" by a director (???????) and stretched by Macneilies, so I would say not a genuine Limo.

The LWB rover 75's were stretched by McNeillies but sold through Rover dealers.

It is a Genuine Limousine; looking at the close up of the rear door window lettering.

No it all adds up to just before the time before Rover started making the limos inhouse...mcneilies did MK1 and some facelift front versions with mk1 rears! My current one was like that, previous owner put a facelift rear bumper on as well. Still has the rover badge on the boot though like Mk1's. The cut and shunt done by Rover I think was slightly better work. It was more 'staggered', therefore a stronger join.

Nothing really going for this except premium bumper - and rare in a diesel of course.

But seriously, 5.5K for something worth at best 2K on a normal CDTI with that mileage? I doubt it. And I LOVE LWB's!
Your dreaming. Not done my homework. I'll think you'll find you haven't. Don't come on here bad mouthing me. It was over priced for a reason title buddy. To attracta serious buyer who knows there stuff. 2k hahahahahahahaah it's 8 inches longer for 1. It's not a production like limo so does not have the high tax bracket. It's fully loaded! My price was 3k. No need to come on here acting the big man. Cdti and MANUAL. Both rare. Rare colour only 2 made in that colour. Spec was made to request. X directors car. Jesus you guys really suck. I only logged back in to say my bit. Now I'll dissappear with my RARE limo. Clueless!!!

Yes it's a genuine limo. Originally a mk1 rover 75. Then recalled on request and stretched and upgraded to mk2 spec.

I done my homework thanks. Don't talk about something you clearly know nothing about. Making me look bad for fun??
