Default Time for us to say Goodbye...

Time for us to say Goodbye and Thank you to this wonderful club . Last month our last rover 75 tourer was involved in a RTC and got written off . It’s has been almost 6 years of rover 75’s, it has been a pleasure owning few, and it’s the best used car money can buy , comfort , safety , reliability ( most of the time ) and economical. it’s time for a little change . For the past 6 years the amount of knowledge and help learned from this club is unbelievable. This club made me from phoning AA for a flat tyre to changing the whole suspension set up , clutch , cambelt etc... by myself. There are quiet a lot of members I meet and I made some good friends from this club . There are few member I should thank at this time , Walter , Kevinbonney , Anna , Marinabrian, Trikey, Wullie, glen,Ronnie , RPWC,Arctic, Duncan ,Simon, Bailey brothers, boys from mgrover scotland club . Apologies if I have missed anyone . There’s loads to name . Here’s some pictures of the rover 75 I owned in last few years .

My first Rover 75 seafrost facelift Saloon Manual





And I catched Rover diesel of hoarding

My first cdt auto saloon in royal blue



My First Auto Tourer Connie SE royal blue with Neptune blue interior .



My first cdt manual Tourer Midnight Blue



Acquired few more along the way including Andy’s gold saloon







Our Auto tourer served us good for the past 4 years tooks us to Ireland and all over Britain , towing caravan . Tooks us every where we wanted , until last month a Red light runner while under the influence of something decided to T bone it .

RIP ROVER


Our new rides






Thanks to this club and it’s members . May be in future I will be back .

Regards
Ash

It's a shame that you are now without a 75 but your knowledge will remain, and you could pop in to share it.

A Subaru Legacy/Outback is one of the few cars I'd replace the 75 with. Great choice . All the best.

That's a big shock, but I'm pleased you've found something you're happy with to replace the 75.

Always enjoyed your posts; take care and all the best. Mat

Best of luck ash
Great choice with Subaru , I had a 2006 black legacy estate non turbo petrol . I used to bore everyone by saying one day all cars will be made this way 😉.
All the best
