Project Salvage Rover 25 Commerce
Well nearly finished the latest salvage project so thought i'd post up its progress. Didnt take to many pics this time as its only took me 3 weekends to do.

Its a 2003 2.0 TD intercooled. 67k miles and cat C but doesn't need a Vic which is better. Picked it up for £550

This is how it was when i bought it. Bloody primer to cover the signwriting took ages to get off





Stipped and pile of scrap parts...





Then i've decided to keep it so i modded it abit. ZR shocks with 35mm avo lowering springs. ZS 180 wheels. Nearly finished now. Just need a bulb holder for passenger indicator and front reg plate. Then a good valet.



and a bonus pic of my mrs's £600 ZR. still had tax and mot but had HGF due to leaking waterpump. The guy sold it so cheap because he was told the engine was scrap. I had it back on the road for under £100 :lol:
