  • I won't go into the endless cock-ups that have happened, even the though the video doesn't really cover it. I will say though that a deal has been made involving Albert the bodged up 75 for an older V6 model.

    I'm lucky enough to see a few local early 75s quite frequently. There's a beautifully clean V reg one just down the road and I happened to see a really clean X reg one in copperleaf red the other day.
    Saw a 25 yesterday and 2x 75 tourers last weekend!
    So there's a lot of people local to me that still like their rovers!
    Jasper looks lovely, just too far gone with the rot 😔 coupled with the hydraulic fault as well, it's a shame

    Very nice colour paint on jasper, lov the chrome, esp the strip along the bottom

  • @scottishcarenthusiastsandtrain

    Shame it's the end of the road for Jasper but cannot all be saved apart from the parts to sell to give other 75's a chance to keep on going.

    A real shame that it's the end of the road for Jasper. Really rare colour, nice wheels and an early Cowley built one :(

      The wheels weren't original, and now on Albert. It is a shame. I will be making a video on this car very soon;.

    The catchy Aldi chant. As soon as they hear of it, Aldi will be using that on their commercials!
    I always feel terrible if I press a pedestrian crossing button and then while waiting it turns out not to have been necessary👀. I think there could do with being a cancel button.

    I think you did a very good job of getting it on the truck. Albert is off to a new owner to get fixed. So that's a good thing. Can't have ham without mustard lol. It seems to have been better weather down there with you it's been horrible up here raining sleating. Not able to do any car work. Which is rather a pain as it means no income. The traffic light kinda of annoying lol 😂👍

    I had those Meteor wheels on my facelift Tourer in Cimarron Green and they looked amazing. Shame about all the rust on the Dorchester Red Jasper - such a lovely colour. We name almost everything in our house and it’s quite legitimate when you use Amazon Alexa plugs because you get to relate the item to its ‘character’ so our Christmas lights plug’s called ‘Noddy Holder’ and our floor standing pendant light is called ‘Dave Arch’ after the bandleader on Strictly because it’s the shape of an arch. Hours of fun! Get that microwave named…

    Have you checked transitface's alternator under load? 14.5v at idle can be misleading especially with fords and their poxy smart charge system.
    Make sure it's 14v at least with a heavy electrical load before you consign those batteries to the skip 😀

    • @ProjectNigel
      @ProjectNigel  Před 2 lety

      Yes I tried it today with the lights, blower and the beacon. Showing about 14.6 volts.

    Is it not possible to save it? Or possibly let someone try and save it?
    Dorchester red is a ridiculously rare colour.

    Black-sills 75's are the best ones, and were peak 75 in terms of quality. I like the alloys that went on Albert, but he seems to have since been condemned, unless he had his number plates changed.

    Sandwiches looked a good effort by the twins but pity that spare jar of mustard ended up in the skip a few months ago!

    I've been thinking about a name for the microwave. Bet it was made in China so perhaps something Chinese would be suitable. Something like Project Spin Cuk Ping 😁

    Have you already started taking W477 PFM to pieces? If it is still in one piece, and you want to, I would buy it off you to try and save as that is a VERY rare model. Despite it being a club.
