I'm assuming it's a customer car or something. There used to be a bloke in Newhaven with a pair of 240's, I swear one was identical to this. I think I should go have a look if it's still there Monday. 500tops and RoverFolkUs 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My "moderns" have jobs queueing up as it is! It's a shame because I imagine there's probably not really much up with it, just normal 30+ year old car problems Rust Collector 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me thinks an MoT tester put down the wrong model on a test. Checking the actual car details shows it has a 2497cc engine and the last log book issued in April 2022. It would need a current MoT to get the plate of it as it has been off the road for over 5 years. 474 DYP SORN Vehicle Details Vehicle make ROVER Date of first registration May 1997 Year of manufacture 1997 Cylinder capacity 2497 cc CO₂ emissions Not available Fuel type PETROL Euro status Not available Real Driving Emissions (RDE) Not available Export marker No Vehicle status SORN Vehicle colour SILVER Vehicle type approval Not available Wheelplan 2 AXLE RIGID BODY Revenue weight Not available Date of last V5C (logbook) issued 22 April 2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh don’t worry, I’ve got no space or time either 😅 when was the last time you saw a 240 for £500 Ono though, got to be worth buying, cleaning and having a poke around. 500tops and RoverFolkUs 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
