Hi People My Dad (lives in Leeds) has just turned 80, he has a very nice Rover
114GSI, it is honestly immaculate from front to back with EW, leather seats and so on for a car of this type, there is not one sign of rust, the car has just topped 45k miles, it runs perfectly, apart from the fact the Auto gear box has seized up, garage was looking for £1400 to repair, he needs a car to get around, he needs an automatic gearbox, so I went out and got him a lovely Peugeot 306 yesterday, but that leaves us with this very beautiful 114GSI stood on his drive, what do you people think? scrap or sell on EBay for spares? shame really, if he lived closer I would try and sort it myself but its to far away and I have no way of getting it towed (drive shafts disconnected by garage)Your input would be helpful, I am asking this because it seems such a shame for such a lovely car which has had two owners, an old couple up to 20k, then my dad who has only done the remainder over 4 years, garage maintain and well looked after.
I have photos of it, but dont know if I can post them here.
Anyway thanks for reading this and any help would be more than welcome
Gordon
