New to RSR - CHR15E

Post by chr15e » Thu Oct 09, 2008 1:08 pm

Afternoon all.

I'm Chris and I'm an 800aholic. :D I'm 27 and I've been driving 800s since I was 19. It's my old mans fault, he's had them for years.

I've only got 4 at the minute but I've owned nearly 50 over the last few years.

It was a 1987 Rover 820SE auto saloon that got us back on Rovers and we thought this was a lovely car however its reliability was terrible for a then 2 year old 25k mileage car almost everything went wrong in the 2 years we owned it and it this was the last modern car we had.

Now we have a selection of classic Rovers and Land Rovers from 1938 to 1973 but no modern P6 onwards versions ;)

Its nice that soemone is keeping them going as they will become rarer than the running board Rovers soons as the electroniocs and plastics degrade :cry:

Welcome aboard Chris. It is really great to see people with younger Rovers are interested in keeping them going. I ran a Mk2 827 Sterling for about 3 years, very relaxed motorway cruiser. I'm afraid it got ousted by a Rover 75 when it started needing more attention than I could devote to it.

Regards
Paul
