Transmission: Manual
Mileage: 91, 778
MOT: Expired
An often-overlooked car that graced the driveways of many UK families in the 1990s, the Rover Maestro was the reliable and dependable hatchback that superseded the Austin Allegro. The 5-door hatch pioneered some interesting features for its class including body coloured bumpers, Electronic engine management and adjustable height front seat belts. Fitted with the Perkins diesel like this clubman D, there are only 23 currently registered on UK roads.
Acquired by its current owner in 2006, this Rover has enjoyed a quiet life in the Cotswolds being used as a run around until October 2018, since then it has been undercover. The blue paint with red pin stripe appears in good condition and the period alloy wheels really make the car stand out. The interior is also fair for its age whilst the engine and gearbox are reported to be in good working order. The only alteration from factory appears to be the fitting of a tow bar at some point.
No longer required by its current owner, they wish to see it go to someone who will love and cherish what is now quite a rare car. Previous online and paper MOT history appear to back up the current odometer reading. The sale includes a current V5 document showing just three former keepers as well as old MOT’s and some parts receipts.
Estimate: £1, 000 - £1, 500
