breaking atlantic blue Mk1 with blue interior.

After unsuccessfully trying to sell this car in the hope of saving it it is now being broken for parts but due to space it won't be around for long. If you definitely want parts then Steve(rovercoup) has generously offered to hold parts for a few weeks until you can pick them up so please be certain that you are willing to travel to herefordshire to collect them in a reasonable time.
The engine has already gone and the auto gearbox is sadly slipping badly.
The rear arches will be donated to Simon as he attempts to get these remade to the benefit of us all
The front wings are past there best, indeed only the bootlid is what I would deem to be salvageable bodywise.
In reality I am putting this up for the rare prussian blue interior in diagonal velvet.
Small parts can be posted at your cost and the cost of parts will be a donation to the Rover 800 Owners Club that you deem reasonable.

I don't suppose it has a half decent scuttle panel does it? Is it a V6?

Hi James, scuttle I'll check tomorrow but I think its probably rotten and yes it was a 827Sli 1989 auto.

Thanks, would be good if it happens to be intact. Don't support the exhaust manifolds are any good?

Front manifold has a sheared stud but of course that could be drilled, the rear manifold is cracked.

Of course Dave but it's a long trek from you for collection, unless Dusan is winging his way past in the near future.

I would like the roof! When it gets to the day when it's off to the scrappy, I'll come along and cut it off. Need one to repair mine.

Nitro the roof panel is not good, going around the sunroof and along the top of the screen I'm afraid.

Hi Tracy
Wasn't the fuel pump then? The main relays are repairable if you know someone that's half decent with a soldering iron, I do have some spare ones so if you can't get yours repaired let me know.

Hi
Yes it was the fuel pump but the relay went. Scoobyh123 is going to repair mine hopefully and the only one I can get is from USA but will cost over £100.
Bit if you have a spare let me know the cost as I may know someone that could solder it.

Thank you
Tracy
