This Rover is great and I hate to sell it BUT we need a 4 door vehicle for new kid. I have kept it covered and running everyday and it gets tons and tons of looks and comments everytime I drive it.
Get ready for spring and summer, this vehicle turns heads easily. It would take very little work to get this thing into a VALUED $50k+ Rover, depending on what you want. If you really want to make this thing amazing, I have all the contacts lined up who will do the work if you want to send this vehicle to the right people to do this for you.
I know everyone says this but I really, really do hate to see this go so I will ONLY sell it to someone who will take care of it and appreicate it.
