EXTERIOR
This outstanding high specification Rover 75 Connoisseur is finished in factory original Copperleaf Red Pearlescent, (Code CDX), a cost option specified when ordered new. Having covered a warranted low 8,578 miles from new, the paint finish is simply stunning and boasts a deep polished shine and uniform finish. All factory panels are arrow straight and only a tiny ding to the front nearside wing and some touched-in scratches. The underside is beautifully clean and still displays PDI markings, long lost on most examples. Further originality is seen with the supplying dealer number plates, windscreen sticker and tax disc holder still fitted.
INTERIOR
The factory fitted and premium Connoisseur specification full leather interior is trimmed in Sandstone Beige, (Code SCF). Immensely comfortable and sumptuous, the beautiful upholstery is commensurate with the incredibly low mileage with no visible wear or markings whatsoever. The matching carpets are pristine having been protected since showroom handover by Rover tailored rubber over mats and both the door cards and headlining are as new. The highest levels of luxury continue with leather trimmed touch points including the immaculate cream steering wheel and lashings of real wood burr walnut finishing’s, fitted to earlier cars before imitation wood came in use. All controls and functions operate perfectly including the Connoisseur specification dual climate control and electrically adjustable heated front seats. The boot area is spotless and the tool kit housed in the spare wheel cavity is still wrapped in clear film!
ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The silky-smooth Rover V6 24 valve Quad Cam engine features the Variable Intake System (VIS) and produces 148bhp and 185Nm peak torque enabling a top speed of 130mph and 0-60mph in 10.2 seconds. Incredibly and unusual for a car having covered such low mileage, there are 11 Rover/MG main dealer stamped entries in the service book confirming that the car has covered less than 1,000 miles between each service and the running and performance is absolutely perfect, smooth and quiet. The engine bay is pristine and displays factory PDI dabs and bright stickers. The five-speed manual gearbox operates perfectly.
WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
The factory upgraded and unrestored multi-spoke style alloy wheels are in superb order with no kerb markings and are shod in matching brand 215/55 ZR16 tyres fitted brand new in 2021. The Anti-lock braking system (ABS) features Electronic Brake Distribution and the braking components are perfect in both condition and operation.
HISTORY FILE
Registered new on the 3rd September 2001 by Hereford Rover, this example has been family owned from new until 2021 and has covered a fully verified 8,578 miles from new.
