Wanted: 1995 RRC LWB

[Welcome to Hell A]

I'm looking for a 95 RRC LWB, in very good condition. Almost everything should be working.

Exterior: no dents or rust; paint either in good condition or price adjusted to reflect, RTE bumpers would be a plus.

Interior: no tears, excessive wear, etc...original looking condition would be awesome.

It's going to be a DD, so I don't want anything above a mild lift. Only non- or very low-rust cars considered.

I'm in CA.

Try www.craiglook.com

Type in 1995 LWB, 95 LWB, Rover LWB, or some variation of.

There are numerous 95 classics for sale all over the country. A ton of them in California.

I expect and appreciate Dwebbers letting me know if anything is unrealistic.

Nice link, thanks. I usually use google with the search string '1995 range site:craigslist.org'. Came up with same results, but craiglook has the distance searching feature. Nothing worth looking at yet...the one in SLO is decent but something doesn't seem right pricewise.

I have a real nice one Im considering parting with. Im in PA though, so Im not sure if thats too far for you or what.

Roverdude has a primo truck for primo money in LBC.

 

[Welcome to Hell A]

We've been emailing. Are you talking about the plymouth blue one? He mentioned there was another truck that was coming in soon, but I haven't received info from him yet on that one.

 

[Drillbit]

The one I was talking about was this one, 320539561688 on ebay. I don't know if he sold it or not.

 

[Welcome to Hell A]

That thing is gorgeous. Must have been the one he was talking about. It's a bit higher than the max I wanted to spend unfortunately. Bummer.

I'm looking for a 95 RRC LWB...

...aren't we all?

 

[Welcome to Hell A]

Maybe, but I'm REALLY looking for one. Getting the feelers out there and hoping I can pounce on a sweet one.

Ben, are you still regretting selling me your's? Man it's sweet.

Just curious, why an LWB versus the short wheelbase?

Because LWB > SWB

 

[RBBailey]

If you have to ask, you have not compared the LWB to the SWB in a real world scenario.

Bri -- I'm glad you like it, but yeah... I miss it. I bought back my Series IIa, maybe I can buy the LWB back?

By the way... what the heck ever happened with the engine on that?

Stupid answer, try again. What's your real world scenario? Seems like each would have an advantage in different scenarios. The LWB glides better on the highway, but looks like ass and is harder to park. The SWB is easier to wheel, but can't carry as much beer behind the front seats. What else am I missing? 3.9 vs. 4.2? What?

Yikes, that mileage works out to 1,020 per year. Even if it was stored in a climate controlled vacuum I'd be nervous about buying a Rover that had seen so little use. But this discussion is totally irrelevant since the asking price is totally ridiculous.
