I'm really glad this rare early car is now within the club. Maybe I'll get to see it someday. Regards Graham

It was your post here that made me see it!
So thank you for that! Me and my good lady are buying it, doing the head gasket, then with that millage and how clean it seems to be it will live a life in the future without seeing any salt and bad weather. It’s going to be a summer only car and preserve it. It’s going to have good company with my V reg longbridge management car and my fleet of metros and 75 tourer. It’s going to get detailed and made to look like new hopefully. It’s going to end up in good hands.

yeah not much work really, done one on a single cam k series but never a twin. All stuff to learn.
A few details on the car is it has both of the original dealer key rings, tax disk holder, window sticker and reg plates. it has all the tax disks from june 2001 up until 2015. The seats have had covers on and are in pretty good condition. Theres some marks on the paintwork but most of them are listed in the service book as to have been done at the dealer whent hey used it. The dealer stamp in the service book is stamped 'Rover group eng'g w/shop cowley oxford' Once the work is done it will be kept insode for the winter and used in the summer. theres not rot on it either. A pretty sorted car. It is going to be put in Alices name as her car (forum user AFirth1369) The work it needs won't be done just yet as we both have other projects to complete. i need to figure out how to upload photos and ill put some up. It is the sister car to Steves he just got. https://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=314976
