Wooden gear knob?

[Anonymous]

Hi all
I am trying to find a walnut gear knob for a 75 pre face lift, I am having no luck in England and was wondering if anyone has any ideas of where I could get one in Germany?

I am a member of this forum under the name letitbe but the site will not recognise my password

Thanks for any help you can give me.

hi letitbe,

as I remind Rover don´t offer the walnut gear knob for the old fasioned 75
anymore. Perhaps my dealer could have one. If you want, I´ll ask him and
report you.

Sorry for my worse English

best regards

Thank you for offering to contact your dealer for me. I would really appreciate that thank you

Never worry about your English, its far better than my German!
I have been trying to learn Deutsch for about two years now. This summer we went down to the Black Forest and to my amazement it was easy to find English speaking Germans. My broken German was a great source of ammusement I am sure they were thinking "why dont this Englander speak English and stop trying to speak German"

Hi,

be careful! There are two types of gear knobs for the pre face lift 75. As I know, the models since 2004 or 2003 are different.

hi letitbe,

my dealer has one.
But, as Gert told, this knob don´t fit in my car. Rover changed the form of the
gear stick since a little more than two years.
When was your 75 built?
btw. the price in Germany is 117,-- Euro, that´s 76,50 Pound Sterling.

Thanks for your replies Gert and Scotty, and a big thanks for your help in this.

My 75 was first on the road in July 2003 and the chassis number is SARRJZLKF40297780 its a conn/se 1.8T When I got the car the dealer said as it had a chassis number starting with a number 4 it was only recently built and had not been hanging around that long so I assume it was built not long before first being registered. To be honest I am not too bothered about the cost as I really want one I think it will make all the difference to the car with one fitted.

If you are passing your dealer Scotty I would really appreciate you asking him if that one would fit. I would then ring him direct and ask him to post one over to me. Thanks for all your help Scotty, its nice when 75 owners help each other out............let me know Scotty and thanks again.

I have changed my password and it still won't let me in letitbe

Thanks
