1985 Rover SD1 V8 Vanden Plas auto, 125,000 miles, MoT Sept 2024. In the past 2 years has had carb overhaul including: auto chokes, new front brake discs, calipers and pads and a full stainless steel exhaust all done by Wight Classics. The car was the subject of a full restoration around 2010 with main panels replaced sourced from Rimmer Brothers in Lincoln. The gentleman spent a fortune on the restoration but then sadly passed away. It had 2 owners then for a short time before I acquired in 2016. In my ownership the car was recommissioned but has had little use since then spending most of it's life in my garage alongside my 89 Mini. Body wise is good, there are some small rust bubbles in 1 or 2 places, the sides have a deep shine but the roof, bonnet and hatch are a little flat and could do with a machine cut and polish. The sunroof isn’t opening but it doesn’t leak. Interior is very nice. The seats were replaced with a set from a very low mileage VDP. Woods are cracked but I have 2 other sets. 1 is a NOS from when the car was produced in India and 1 from another vehicle. Fuel gauge doesn’t work but I have an NOS sender unit included. Car is very comfy, goes and stops well. Looking for £7950. I am based on the Isle of Wight and would include ferry to the mainland for collection after sale, I can’t do this for viewings.
