Description:In Brief:
On the Surface: This 1997 Rover 825 is a prime example of a ‘top of the range’ Sterling model, finished in Black over a Grey leather interior with Black piping. With just 35,594 miles on the clock this is rare low-mileage example. Maintenance & History: With just two former keepers, this car has an intriguing past. Initially used as a ministerial vehicle for the UK Government, it later served a more ceremonial purpose with a local funeral director. The Vendor meanwhile has cherished this car for the last 18 years. The car boasts a well-documented maintenance history, with invoices totaling over £3,000, a collection of old MOT certificates, and the original Rover bookpack containing the Owner’s Handbook, Rover Approved Warranty booklet, In-Car Entertainment Handbook, and Service Portfolio. Unfortunately, the car has not been MOT’d since 2018, however, the Service Portfolio includes seven service stamps, detailing maintenance between 1998 (at 11,903 miles) and 2006 (at 29,024 miles) and there MOT’s on file previous to 2018. The Model: The Rover 800 Series, co-developed with Honda, was designed to offer executive-level comfort and performance. As part of the 1996 facelift, the 825 Sterling Coupe benefited from refined features such as climate control, improved suspension, and enhanced security systems. Powered by a Honda-engineered 2.5L V6 delivering 172 BHP through a smooth 4-speed automatic gearbox, this is the perfect modern classic for comfort and subtle performance. Sale Insight: This car offers a great opportunity to own a top of the range Rover 825. A unique ownership story, impressive low mileage, luxurious specifications and detailed provenance make this 825 Sterling a great potential purchase for any modern classic enthusiast. |
