Cheap Rover
I'm looking for a cheap Rover, 416 preferrably around 1996 ish for my daily commute, the Fix It Again Tomorrow was sold yesterday, thank god! Not sure if anyone will have feelers out, but worth a punt anyhow.
Cheers, Mick

I have considered that, those I have seen have intergalactic mileage! I'll keep my eyes open, missed a few already, didn't have the cash available, doh!
I wasn't going to bother, just run the 180, but I don't want to be adding 350+ miles a week on it, it's not far off 50k now. So a shed is more economical and wouldn't matter on adding miles. Really want to stay in the MGR fold.

Who cares about economy... ? I've put over 500+ miles on mine in less than a week.

Around the £500 mark will suffice. Seen plenty of good ones, but was too late! A buyers market!

Economy......... ..........if I didn't have three daughters, a large mortgage I would be running something bigger! £10 a day, everyday hits the bank balance a bit I can't really justify that expense tbh. Plus it takes the shine off the 180 if driven all the time.
