1990 Rover Sterling Manual HGF Ex Richard Moss £250.00

Post by Dajazar » Sat Sep 25, 2021 4:13 pm

Hi

It is with a very heavy heart that I'm sadly selling the above due to the loss of my mechanic and the cost of repairs. I bought her off Richard over 11 years ago and had everything that needed done no matter what the cost to keep it going but what with losing my mechanic and my hubby in poor health it is time to let her go. Richard was going to buy her back from me but unfortunately he has lost his garage space.

The car will need to be trailered away and a compressor is needed to pump up a rear Tyre as otherwise i'll need to ruin my lawn. It has had loads of new/replacement bits.

The car is Light Blue over Storm Grey save the front wings which are silver and I got them from the USA recently, I still have the boot-load of spares which Richard gave me with the car. In addition I will let a spare fuel filler neck go with it and it also has a hens teeth OE Boot liner which I got for £150 from a member on here. It has a stainless exhaust (Excl Front Pipe), a recent clutch and battery plus too many other parts to mention.

The car needs surface rust treatment and paint but I think it represents a good deal for someone on here who can do the head gasket and the surface rust and restore her to the road. The car is almost 31 years old and deserves to live on or at least let other MK1's carry on.

I wish i could do the things it needed but sadly im not that good.

If anyone is interested please send me a PM .
Car is located in Northumberland

Thanks for taking the time to read
Regards
Tracy :(

I really did want to get this back but have nowhere to stash it, unfortunately.

As a non-cat mk1 manual Sterling it is a very quick and very rare car.
