Hi Steve,

Its value is going to be basically entirely based on its condition.

What sort of shape is it in? Chassis, bulkhead, does it have the original number plate or has it been re registered.

What body style is it?

Could be anything between 250 and 5000 pounds....

Rgds
Peter.

It's never been restored,just kept up to all it's life.Soft top and hard top with it.Chassis and bulkhead excellent,original plate.
Will get some pics up this weekend.

[Psimpson7]

Pics would be good.

Cheers
Pete.

Hi,
that is an 88" as I first thought when I saw the 2052cc diesel engine mentioned - giveaways are:

Steel grille panel with single centre aperture
Binnacle-mounted horn push button

the 86" had:
Aluminium (birmabright) grille panel with three small and one large aperture
Steering wheel mounted horn push button

Nice 'Rover, I've forwarded details to my dad who owns an 88" Series One (1958, ex Vickers Armstrong).

Out of interest where would a numberplate ending in "HF" orginially have been registered?
