Fred Elliott's Rover 800-Coronation Street
Following on from the excellent Michael Parkinson video I have found an old episode of Coronation Street with Fred Elliott's Rover 820.

Second scene: Out on the road 8:43-12:55
Third Scene: 14:34-15:13 leaving the car park

Re: Fred Elliott's Rover 800-Coronation Street
This makes me happy.
When was Fred Elliott written out of it? One of my memorable moments watching the soaps as a youngster was a scene where Fred left a poker game (or some other tension-inducing rivalry event) with Mike Baldwin and Fred returned to a darkened car park to his Rover 800. Mike Baldwin drove a BMW 5 series. No idea when this was, but the fact Fred Elliott drove a car like my Grandad made that brief moment stick in my mind.
In fact just searched and it turns out he was written out in October 2006 and the episode I was thinking of being in 2004. Was this used as a TV prop for its entire life?

I think Alf Roberts, even before Fred Elliots days, used to drive a rover too
but then he was a Weatherfield councilor

Re: Fred Elliott's Rover 800-Coronation Street
This episode comes from August 1999. He uses it again later in the year when he visits another character away from Weatherfield.
From what I remember, Alf Roberts had a Montego estate.

That's a very old Corrie episode - the actor's been dead a while - I think. Didn't Audrey have a few Rovers as well?

I don't think i've ever seen Audrey drive? I can never look at Sue Nicholls (who plays Audrey) without thinking of Nadia Popov in Rentaghost.

As soon as the theme tune finishes, there's Audrey - err, Nadia even sat on a counter, knitting with Witch Hazel to her right.
As for when Fred Elliott was written out, it was on his on-screen wedding day :
