Less common add on items.
I have just been browsing through my recently acquired Rover approved accessories brochure and sales brochure. Apart from bringing back some great memories such as the excitement I felt waiting for the week to pass before I pick up my then (03) brand new and first ever 75. I also remember one late November evening sitting up in bed choosing my Christmas presents from the accessories brochure
Anyway I got to thinking on just how many of the more 'obscure' items actually sold and if any members on here have them fitted so I have chosen 10 and put them on this poll. If you have one that I have not included please post, remember it must be original MGR product. Incidentally for Christmas 2003 I had tail pipe trims, boot nets, warning triangle, drivers side cup holder, bulb kit, premium mats and the CDT to CDTi upgrade. I can't remember what the power upgrade cost but the total for the other items was £203.11

Really good idea. This must be the saloon though. Maybe we could do one for the tourers. What was the difference between CDT and CDTi?

Most of these fit the tourer too. :lol:
The CDTi is just a remap of the engine done by the dealers. It gave the car a better 0-60. Now-a-days fitting a Rover Ron box is much better!

It´s in my accecories folder for the facelift (2003 AKM813) It states: Fasten the handlebars and saddle to the system at the side of the car, then aided by the servosystem simply lift the bike effotlessly onto the roof and lock to secure in place. I´ve never seen anything like it before. Wonder if anyone has got one?:lol: |
