New car. After 7 years of luxury saloons I fancied a change!

panthro · 16 Apr 2012 at 22:44

Nice change. I love the 987, such bargain at the moment for the 3.2. Whats the spec?

My TT quattro Sport that I picked it up at the weekend. I have been car-less for two years after I sold my old TT and missed it so thought I would be totally original and buy another. I'm really pleased with it, the Recaros are great. I'll have to get some more photos soon.

It's a 2.7 rather than a 3.2 unfortunately, but a strong spec and the price was very good.

Boxster S wheels, Climate, Cruise, Parking sensors, Sat-Nav, Phone, Bose, Full leather. Full main dealer service history too.

High mileage but you'd never guess - looked at lots of them and the paint and interior wear was far more in keeping with lower mileage cars.

190k on the 75 today, and still going strong.

She might be a shed, but it's comfy, rapid enough for motorway blasts and pottering about in, and costs pennies to run and own.

Happy 190,000 miles Fred! I need something new and interesting to show you...

To be fair, for a diesel estate I have got the power up to reasonable levels - taken a while to get there though. Tough engine to get lots of power from, harder than I was expecting.

I have no idea where Fred came from.

We had one of them a few years ago as a works car.
Was a very nice drive to be honest.

I've had a few other models of Rover, and this is really the only one that feels properly engineered and put together - I also drove a few other marques before picking the 75.

It's really quite a shame they went under - perhaps if they made more cars like the 75 instead of making cheap **** they would still be here today.

I hope that rover has rust.
