R8 Rover 220 Roffle Sold Out! Payment details sent out.

It's time to move the Rover on so it's up for Roffle if anyone wants a go. It has been owned by quite a few people on the forum, I let Nisfan have it a while ago but he's no longer using it so it's just sitting taking up space.
Mot is until December, it drives fine from what I remember but there's a crack in the windscreen so that will definitely need replaced for the next test.

£2.50 a number and located in Cowdenbeath.

Has it still got the history file? Like a true autoshite bod I’d set out all the history I had in the conventional sense and also printed everything from the retro rides bo11ox tat blog and all posts from here related to it. Remember it a framing a polonez? What about the ribbing sixcylinder got when he was trying to get the cheapest rail fayre to collect it? It was all there. Yes I am sad.

Yeah, it still has the massive folder of forum tat.

I'm amazed my rattle-can touchups held as long as they did, terrifying to think this was four and a half years ago...

Still love this car, it did so much so well and was totally reliable both times I had it.  Mega-comfy too.  I had that windscreen fitted when that and the frame rot threatened to send it over the bridge - I also ended up replacing the incontinent waterpump and rotten radiator and a load of other bits, probably ended up spending 4x what it was worth over two ownership stints but it was always a joy to drive.  I'll pass on the tickets as there's no way I could risk actually winning and having to make a 1000 mile round trip to get a fourth motor I don't need.  Hope it does the next owner a good turn and continues to soldier on.

 

Spooky, it is exactly, to the day, 5 years ago that I started this thread...

I’ll have two randoms please.

 

Most people on here have got some connection to this car - mine is that I used to see it around Swansea when it lived with Phil_lihp’s sister for a while.

 

Plus I have happy memories of driving a lovely 3-door 220GSi belonging to a girl I was keen on a long time ago. Only got to first base but the Rover was good fun.
