grogee Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Fuxache I wanted that (but no need, space, money, time etc). Safe travels, you're now travelling Rover class with all the other Brexity twats. AnnoyingPentium, privatewire and Jim Bell 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2flags Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Great purchase. Love a Rover myself. I've had a few over the years. Still have one now. fairkens 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Bell Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Well bought man. I bet it's a comfortable way to get back down the hill to the lands of its forebears. fairkens and tooSavvy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A dozen hens and I'm lucky to get an egg a day, and that's from the same bird.

fairkens Posted January 28, 2023 Author Share Posted January 28, 2023 It was a really nice journey home, very comfortable and no surprise its very happy at 60/70/80. Its been a while since i had a diesel. The old skool turbodiesel power delivery is hilarious but lots of fun once it comes on song. Stirring the pot for the right gear is fine because the gearbox is really nice to use, which I wasn't expecting. Its a bit tricky on the hills by home when I changed up too quickly and caught a face full of turbolag instead of a nice wave of torque. It's clearly a nice example that's been well looked after, cheers again to dave hedgehogs for a smooth transaction. dome, davehedgehog31, Split_Pin and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Split_Pin Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Good news on the Rover. An L series 45 saloon is on my bucket list. Sorry about the chooks though. Sounds like they need some extra-spicy curry in their seed mix, that'll get things moving. AnnoyingPentium, fairkens and davehedgehog31 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
