[Rovernet] eBay

[Lance La Certe]

Gentlemen, gentlemen, a little forbearance; or,  in 21st century parlance: "Don't be such haters".

I contacted the dealership directly, and had a really nice exchange with "Trinity".   She indicated they had bought the car from an estate auction and had no experience with Rovers whatsoever.    Instead of screaming "bollocks" about the leather, I sent her the link to the Federal Rovers page describing all of the details and peculiarities of the 3500S NADA model.

Needless to say, she was very appreciative, and indicated she would get right to work editing the listing.

Temper, temper, boys!!!!!!

Lance

Glen,

You are absolutely right. Bollocks about the seats being leather and crap about the odometer being in kilometres. As I have said elsewhere, on what planet is this dealer if he thinks that the UK and the US use these crazy unnatural measures of distance inspired by the French revolution?

What you said, mon ami!  ;-)

I'll say what Jonathan was too polite to say...

3000 miles. I don't think so. The SUs and air cleaner are gone at 3000 miles? Also, once again listed a 3600S is listed as having leather seats when they are Ambla with sagging cushions at 3000 miles. And it's not a 315 cubic inch engine.

Why is it reading in kilometers? Was it imported from Belgium or something? I'm pretty sure the Canadian cars still read in miles back then.

Looks like a nice car, but not 3000 miles.
