Scrubs up quite well, but if they are asking top dollar and then some they should really have sorted out the little things that let it down like the sagging door insert cloth and the stretched handbrake compensator.

I'm sure Colin 2Diesels lobbed an engine in this for Lewis last year.

Don't quote me on that though

Question

Weird. It's given for 2002, but some details look like a Cowley built like torpedo badges & above all Rover badge on the boot.
Nevertheless I can't see the badges I've got at the rear of back windows and the bottom waist looks blue like the body.

I can't imaging Rover would supply a PD car for television work.

Indeed, could you imagine the shame of not having seat belt bolt covers

Or as an alternative, like the fitting of Union wheels, they simply have been retrofitted over it's career
