For Spares or repair

Woodster · 17th January 2009, 10:33

Hi guys,,I have for sale a Rover 75 2.5 V6 24v Club SE Tourer Auto.
The car is on a 52 plate and comes in British racing green and has 65000 miles on the clock.

The car is my wifes,which she has owned for the last 3 yrs,unfortunatly during the cold weather last week the engine went ''POP''.

There is water in the oil when the dip stick was removed,so my guess is it's the head gasket or the head has cracked or worse case,the engine block has cracked.

Unfortunatly I don't have the knowledge or the money to repair it,so if someone is up to the challenge or would like a car for breaking for parts maker me an offer.

Up until this mishap the car drove perfectly without any problems.

Call Greg using internal PM system.
For security Details removed.

I will try to add some pictures later.
