g1jkb · Post by **g1jkb** » Sat Jun 11, 2005 10:23 am

over on the coupe forum, we've been compiling a list of all known and spotted FDH coupes, and it's brought out some interesting results. (certainly more than i thought we'd identify)

we were wondering if anyone from rovertech can add to it at all?

even if it's now scrapped, sold on, or not been seen for ages, if you know which number it is/was, please reply to this post, and i'll bung it on the list!

brilliant, i'll pop those down!

Martin · Post by **Martin** » Tue Jun 14, 2005 4:36 pm

I am sure the owners are not bothered. its obvious that theres a range of FDH's with similar registrations, so its not hard to find them all out!

I know a guy on sxoc by the name of "Nicely" had one - but it was written off by a van rear ending him a few years back. I can find out information if somebody wants.

Akay had one last year some time - purchased it rolled, but sold on for parts if I recall correctly.

There was a nightfire one traded in at Rover in Basingstoke last year as well, I fighted myself enough in order to not buy it!

Finally, can't see the one that Nad had last year as well? Tahiti Blue...

Cheezey · Post by **Cheezey** » Sun Jul 03, 2005 7:16 pm

Whats so special about the reg ending in FDH?

gav2pac · Post by **gav2pac** » Mon Jul 04, 2005 12:56 pm

they are imports that have been brought back to the uk or never went out of the UK that came with a higher spec

g1jkb · Post by **g1jkb** » Tue Jul 05, 2005 10:34 am

they weren't re-registered til '98, so they're the next best thing to a 1998 220 turbo.

s0ck · Post by **s0ck** » Tue Jul 05, 2005 1:02 pm

Why not go on that RAC website and put the reg numbers that you haven't got in and it will tell you what cars they are.

trouble is, they'll only tell me it's a 1995 rover coupe, and we already know that.

Does anyone know what the highest number is, 300 doesn't seem that many but if it doesn't get much higher, it shows just how rare they were and moreso now.

respect.

darwin · Post by **darwin** » Fri Oct 21, 2005 1:02 am

Theres 1 near me . Only problem is it isnt an FDH . As its in Northern Ireland its FKZ **** or something like that . So not all FDHs have a reg ending in FDH (that probably doesnt make sense)

g1jkb · Post by **g1jkb** » Fri Oct 21, 2005 5:52 pm

no, it does, and that's a good point.

on the flipside though, can you be sure that one's not a jap import?

darwin · Post by **darwin** » Fri Oct 21, 2005 8:03 pm

Good question . So are all FDHs Jap imports that never made it to Japan ?
