Ex-time warp Rover dealer auction: three 75s offered

SD1too · 7th April 2016, 10:53

If you've driven clockwise around the North Circular road in London at any time during the past few decades you can't have helped noticing Ketteringham's at Neasden; a Rover dealer caught in a seventies time warp. Well, it's finally closed and the remaining stock is being auctioned on Saturday. My guess is that the hammer will fall quite early in the bidding! Here are the details.

Did this garage ever make any money?

I'm not sure when it closed down - but nearly all of the cars were last MOT'd years ago.

Local to me and lots are late in the day. Could be a bargain for someone.

Shame it's not Palmsville in Colney Hatch Lane. I reckon I could find all the missing service history for mine there!

I've often driven past and amazed to see the Rovers still being offered For Sale. Shame it has closed. I hope the cars all find good homes.
