Look who's back!!!
A few months ago the engine of my 75 died after 3 times a hg failure
Also there was a lot water in the boot, radio didn’t work anymore the cooling fan motor didn’t work either.etc etc etc Had to decide what to do with my car. I didn’t like the thought of selling it for spares. So I had to give her a second change. I found a very good Rover/MG specialist And now she’s back!!!! With: A new remanufactured 1.8 engine (of course with the MLS gasket) New fan motor New thermostat New waterpump New clutch plates Music again in my car No more water in the boot Door badges Crofts doorfinishers fitted at last (wow) A black/ walnut gearknob (thanks again Les) And……….. A complete set of a cream leather interior, with memory and heated seats (also Wow). In four weeks I get the powerfold mirrors fitted with the original switch panel So I’m very happy again. Now saving for nice alloys but will take some time for it The only bad thing is I can’t show the engine because I cant’t open the bonnet I think the cable has broken . Is there another way to open it? Thinking about a club grille badge, would it look good on my75?

Prachtige wagen Eric!
Looks very nice, with almost new leather so to see, if you want to keep it that way, I have an address in Holland for you for leather cleaning, feeding and treatment products. It is an leather specialist, who also give instructions on your own car if you want how to use it. Rob.
