Rover Parts - Where to get them?

Now that Rover have gone, where can you buy spare parts for them?

I "borrowed" a throttle cable from a mate and now I owe him a replacement! Trouble is they are £45 from Caterham.

https://www.caterhamparts.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=945&osCsid=5f52d93a6f73b01ba8959b86ed74f9a9




Obviously I'm happy to replace the cable, but I'd rather get one from my local factors than pay Caterham prices.

Cheers

Mike

Rimmer Bros would be the first place to check:

None left round here mate! Hence the question. Will try my local factor in the morning.

Rimmer's don't have that part no.

X part don't seem to have a searchable data base / online catalouge.

As Rusty says. There's still a big network of dealers, though shop around as they do try and con you at times (rear pads from my old ZT260 - £110, also fit Lotus Elise and cosr £15!

If you get stuck try Speedy Cables for a quote. Haven't had any problems getting parts for Rovers around here .
