    Default Just putting feelers out ...

    I'm on the look out for a V8 (Rover 75, rather than the ZT) to replace my 2.0l Connie I currently own. If anyone's selling or, alternatively, knows of anyone selling, please pass on word or a link.

    Much appreciated.

    It would be a tip to ask The Admin (Tim) to change the title to "75 V8 Wanted"

    I seem to remember somebody on the 75 & ZT Owners Club has one up for sale - user name Andysomething, not sure if he's a member on here.

    Plus there's this one (might be one and the same?)

    http://www.autotrader.co.uk/search/u...el-type/petrol

    best of luck there's not many out there

    Cheers

    Does Autotrader have an option to contact the seller by email/message? Would like to fire off a few questions to the owner of the V8 for sale linked above but prefer not to phone until I'm a bit more "serious". (Hate to waste people's time.)

    I really don't know?

    I don't think its the same car as Andy8688 was selling, he was also advertising it here http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...d.php?t=108317
