Just been looking on AutoTrader site, and was searching for a Rover 800(Series) Coupe. Only four came up (throughout the whole country) and the top two are in different locations (which isn't a surprise at all) but the registrations are only one digit different from each other!! :eek:

 

Now how spooky is that?? :D

not as spooky as the othr zed owner with a very similar reg to mine.

Heres another:

 

I was dreaming as usual about buying a Mustang or a Monaro or the like and so was looking on Autotrader. I saw this really nice Monaro in red full VXR kit on it and the 6.0 vented bonnet and it had a very nice number plate to boot.

 

2 days later I was driving back from Leeds and this very same car over took me on the M1.

 

Whats the chances of that?

LOL. I can think of a lot worst to stalk mate. :rofl: Although I much prefer the Mustang now.

There wasn't many 800 Coupe's made - could explain the coincidence. With the 2.7 V6 it's a great car! Wish I hadn't sold mine :(

ps. if you want a 2.0 Manual, I know someone selling a concourse condition minter on a P plate.

I've always liked them, especially having owned two 2.0Si's previously (4 door), but have just bought a more economical Rover 220 SDi as I need to reduce my monthly fuel bill drastically :D

 

As a matter of interest, the P plate one you mention, is it in Cayman Blue Sterling and was advertised on Ebay the other week? If so I saw it and it's in fantastic condition, and had I seen it two weeks earlier then I'd of bought :cool: but alas my money is spent on the 200 now........... One day I'll have one ;)

This thread is a bit spooky, i was only chatting to a mate who works at a salvage yard and he said he was talking to a couple of gypsies who had a 800 series coupe that David Backham used to own! They bought it off him years ago, and they don't wanna sell it i am told :)
