Very Mk4 looking dash too

 

XL and above had the rectangular lights for that age. I think L and base might have had single round lights.

Owned by a mate of mine, who knows I own one but I'm not sure if that influenced his decision!

Tell him he needs shooting for the AI first paragraph of the eBay listing.

Late L (76) gained rectangular ones probably to use up stocks.

I think some folks get confused about Mk3 lights because of the “Life on Mars” TV series. Gene Hunt had a Mk3 2000E but it had quad headlights and grille from an earlier GXL.

Yep, I prefer to keep things standard looking myself, although happy for hidden improvements.

Nice looking car and very rare to see them with the rear original ginger-cators as many owners tend to stick on the later smoked lights which is frankly a boring mod.

Never been a fan of the Vitesse.  4-pot with a turbo, so whilst you get the performance, you don't get the sound. I've always hated those Vitesse wheels too. In fact the reason I hated the wheels and smoked lights was because they were literally the only mod almost every Rover 800 owner ever did back when I was on that site. No one brought anything new to the table. It was always some older "boy racer" with a nice clean early Mk2 Sterling thundering around going YEAH, jUSt GOt VITTY WhEELz and VITTy LIGHTS AND VITTY this and that.... 🤨

Yeah, that's fine, mod your car if you have to but don't jump around doing the same as everybody else thinking you're unique.

Sorry. Rant over.

£500 BIN. Hard to say if it's worth it or not, 99% of the advert is that shitting AI nonsense.

Why, and how do people get AI to write their adverts? 

I love the bit where it mentions "The car also has a right-hand drive" yeah, a right-hand drive what?

Because that Merc wouldn't have the power to do it.

Just came to post that. Says they are clearing uncles old bangers so may well be more treasure.

Edit; Indeed there is.
