Price reductions aren't normally worthy of mention on the Forum except that this one in Germany is maybe of note. VIN #867, a RHD Rover 75 V8 in Germany was just reduced by just over 50% from Euro 19,999 to Euro 9,999. At Euro 19,999 the car had been for sale in Germany now for 18 months.
Desperate seller? Maybe just realistic, since virtually no cars are moving in Germany at the moment https://www.two-sixties.co.uk/mgoc26...748#post200748
This particular car, an ex-diplomatic car destined for Malaysia, was later owned by member 'GMTA' in Holland, who tried unsuccessfully to sell the car for over a year, finally dropping to below Euro 5000. Once sold to Germany it was immediately advertised at Euro 19,999, a huge mark up I think you will agree. https://www.two-sixties.co.uk/mgoc26...N-867-for-sale
When owned by member GMTA, I looked at buying it myself, for SWBO who loves my 75 V8, and easy to view being only 8km from where I live in Holland, but the costs of a new ECU to solve the EVAP codes, 4 Vortexes with proper size tyres, and bumper/grille to replace the Roewe one put me off. I suspected other problems could well be lurking too. Biggest factor was that it was RHD, which meant that my wife gave the idea the thumbs down. Anyway 2 R75V8s on the drive is a bit gross. His and hers V8s for two OAPs to boot!
Whopping reduction in Germany
