2001 Rover - Austin 75 club SE from UK and Ireland - Comments

After reading this lot I am definitely not buying a 75. I live in southern Spain, but always buy cheap cars from the UK (as they are fraction of the cost of here). Generally spend about £500-£1000 and can see the 75 well into that range now. However also in the same range I could get a Mondeo - bullet proof reliable, wouldn't think twice about jumping in one and driving 2000 miles back here. Certainly I don't want something which has head gasket woes which the 75 appears to (just like the Rover 200 I had years ago and various Montego's and Meastros before that!)
