Rover 800 Sterling parts up for grabs

[costadelglosta]

Hi folks

 

I have been lurking on this forum for some time and will get round to contributing some of my own spots and personal shite when I can be arsed, but for the moment I have a Rover 800 Sterling with a V6 in my field which I am about to weigh in. It is not salvagable as the engine is banjaxed from being sat in a damp shed with cylinders full of water for 8 years. Any other parts are up for grabs to any of you good people (except the trim bits eaten by mice). I am near Altrincham, let me know as its getting picked up in the next few weeks.

 

Cheers Ed.

One for Lord Sterling?

[Lord Sterling]

Got any pics mate? Will stick this up on the rover800.info site for ya'

[costadelglosta]

I will see what I can do. Trouble is I'm out of the door in the morning in the dark and come home in the dark! It is a light metallic silvery blue. It has a full leather interior and the seats are good but the door cards are chewed by mice. It has a set of alloys also.

 

Cheers Ed

5 years out of a KV6 before it bit the dust? A longevity record!

[Lord Sterling]

Nice one Ed, just updated the advert, hopefully will et a bite from someone surely. If not, was wondering if you could rob the floor mats out of it for me and I'll some cash your way.

 

Ta,

Hi Mr Sterling

 

Not sure if the floor mats are in there but I will check tonight. It may be heading over the bridge shortly as her indoors wants it off the lawn. Anything else you would like me to keep hold of?

Hi Ed,

 

Yes please, just also after the leather lid off the floor-mounted centre console (Between the front seats, same colour as seats)

 

If you can, could you get some pics, even if it is going over the bridge.

 

Thats all I think.

 

Cheers mate,

LS, this gent is close to where I live, so if you want those bits storing up north for a bit, gis a shout.

[Lord Sterling]

Nice one Wat, very kind of you to offer. If Glosta cannot post them, I'll keep you mind.

 

Cheers man.

[costadelglosta]

Hi Lord Sterling

 

I have that centre console cover if you're still interested? Was there any particular colour?

 

Cheers Costa

[Lord Sterling]

Hi Glosta,

 

I'm still interested, no particular colour as I have cars with both Beige and Grey interiors. What colour os it by the way, and how much would you like including P+P.

 

Are there any floor mats and if so are mats not original Rover ones?

 

Cheers mate,
