One of the shiniest rovers in the country is now for sale!

As some of you may know I have recently gone self employed, working from home. This has meant that the coupe isn't getting the use or attention that it deserves.

I've had the car for just over a year and it hasn't missed a beat. It's been shown at both the Doncaster show and Trax and always generates huge amounts of interest. It's also been featured in Redline a few years ago.

The car has done 90k miles and I will come with a new MOT and 6 months tax.

Performance:

Peak power 241BHP/240ft-lb @ 5950RPM, 0-60mph 6 seconds, top speed 150mph+

The only bad part is a dent in the drivers side wing due to some jealous tw@t & i've not had the time to sort out and the drivers door window has an intermittent problem and doesn't work all of the time.

This car is absolutely awesome in the flesh, it attracts praise and favourable comments wherever it goes. Plenty of people have seen the car in the flesh and will back me up with the comments.

I am looking for offers in the region of £5.5k

I am in Selby, North Yorkshire and can be contacted on 01757 706968 or gareth.timmins@tiscali.co.uk
