Option extras of electric sun roof, electric rear windows and rear head rests. On 78k miles.

I knew the Cambelt, brakes and tyres needed doing. And knew the costs involved. So far, including buying the car it owes me about £2550. Which is fine by me. It's a solid car and well worth it. I now have a sweet running, clean, tidy car within my budget.

Always wanted a ZS 180, after my ZR and I'm now a proud owner of one.

People may call me mad, but I don't care lol......would rather have this than a rusty banger for the same money I've spent.

Can't argue with any of that, I've spent thousands on these old Rover barges over the years. Safe to say a drug addiction would probably have been a better financial investment.
