Good to see the old girl getting some love Brett. You have already doubled the value. Keep going and you might quadruple it. 🤣 Great job on the headlights. Just as well it is low mileage as that oil filter has been around for a very long time.
I know I shouldn't have laughed when you were changing that, but that was a classic! If you had dropped your camera in the oil bucket that would have been the icing on the date.. 🤣
Poor car was really due an oil change, and they got good value from those brake discs. That weird wire coil thing was indeed a disintegrated air scoop from behind the bumper, they are renowned for failing but I never saw one that bad ! I think the "correct" oil is 5w/40 but I wouldn't complain about 10w/40 in a hotter climate. Glad the car is appreciated and steadily improving !
Reckon you should do a compilation video of all your oil changes, she'd be a hit for sure! Hmm MG, old British brand not particularly known for reliability, now made in China... They do look OK for a modern vehicle I suppose. Anyway very entertaining, thanks!
All us 75 owners know about the Shannon tube. At least you got the oil drain right, not the auto band retaining nut(looks the same). Now that would be a real disaster.
The rear interior lamp needs fixing. I have modified these by attaching a tongue (drill a hole and screw in) and it holds it in place. Headlining easy to remove from front door after removing the seats.
I love watching you change oil. Always a drama. Laughed my head off. Great to restore this old Rover.
I'm glad you're attempting to save the poor old girl.
I know that feeling when oil starts going everywhere - I feel your pain…but it was hilarious! It’s going to be a lovely car when finished 👍🏻
Thanks for this video, nice to see the Rover having some care and the years of neglect being reversed. Well done .
I pissed myself laughing at that oil change, best laugh in ages.
🤣

Yes, an old man's car indeed. But all the better for it imho. A nice and comfy little runabout when you've finished the tidy up.
I could watch you all day, I have had two jags, every time I got into it, it seems like the first time, only one car for, me that's a jag
