I should add, that these figures are based on all available build records, but as we know, there are some missing later Cowley built cars, but seing as none of the Cowley build records that we do have had any exports to Australia, it is unlikely that there are many if any unaccounted for in the missing records.

Hey, Sledge,

Do you fancy buying my 2.0 KV6?
It'd be nearly as rare as rocking horse proverbial in Oz

Nah,

I like the 2.5s, and I have an electric sunblind.

The only other I would like is a V8. Interestingly, I have read (by sellers) that there were only 8 V8 ZTs sent to Australia and the guy with the V8 up for sale atm says his is the only Mk I V8. No matter, for me I still don't have the $$ to buy it.

Well you can see the build records say otherwise

and in addition there have been a few private imports too including Rover 75 V8s from places like NZ. There are threads on the subject on our forum

This vehicle was the 45th 75 Tourer 1.8 Classic SE to be made out of 185
This vehicle was the 1,687th 75 Tourer in Zircon Silver Metallic (code: MUM) to be made out of 3,958 Zircon Silver Metallic 75 Tourers

Mine also was an export for Germany. Part of an order of silver Tourers, all diesel autos, for British Forces Germany and along came the Iraq war and the order was cancelled. Whole order was sold cheap to non-MGRover dealer in Hull.
Strangely, mine is listed as a Conny, as it was on the log book when car purchased new. It is actually a Club.
