Re: 1982 Rover 3500 V8 Vanden Plas automatic.

We enjoy living in our new area very much. Driving around and attending meetings. I took the 3500 Vanden Plas to a little meeting in a town nearby: https://i.postimg.cc/7Yc4HFdv/IMG-20231001-151342-2.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/ZK0ZhbfF/IMG-20231001-151337-2.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/v80MjgvZ/IMG-202310...

Re: 1989 Rover 827 Vitesse automatic

Took the 827 Vitesse to a small car event. People really appreciate the old girl! https://i.postimg.cc/G2cwgd8D/IMG-20231008-134804-2.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/vB3RpkfN/IMG-20231008-131411-2.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/PJJGhyMr/IMG-20231008-122236-2.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/1z01KftP/IMG-20231008-121910-...

Re: 1989 Rover 827 Vitesse automatic

Thank you very much for the pictures and the video. Clearly, I dont really like Japonese cars. There are many designs that I like (240 Z, CRX, 300 ZX, MX5...), but in general the interior disappoints me. Concerning the engines I prefer a 3.5l V8 which produces 200 hp than a 2l 4 cylinders which als...

Re: 1989 Rover 827 Vitesse automatic

Oh the Japan meet caused quite a stir here. Haha. Yes I was the only Rover there. People were surprised and impressed by the Vitesse. :) And it is indeed special to see what time has done to some cars now. Every day motors from back in the day are now more rare than a Ferrari. Check it out! Cool vid...

Re: 1989 Rover 827 Vitesse automatic

I took my Rover 827 Vitesse to Japan Classic Sunday! To be sure i contacted the organisation if i was allowed on the event. Because of the joint venture between Rover and Honda it was allowed! :) Met up with friends who drove in their Mazda MX5: https://i.postimg.cc/vTJk51P4/IMG-20230702-073811.jpg ...

Re: 1982 Rover 3500 V8 Vanden Plas automatic.

Thanks Lodein! Glad you liked it. There are so many nice American cars that most people dont know of. A shame realy because the American motor industry deserves a lot if credit in my opinion. :) Gave both Rovers a clean and had to take some pictures of them together: https://i.postimg.cc/q7F4fsdh/1....

Excellent work Marc! In the UK, they don't like welded subframes for the MoT so i'm glad you have more realistic regulations! :wink: :D
Well I am sure they don't like long welds on it here as well. But a small plug weld is fine. :)
