On the way back from the shops I spotted a Nightfire Red R-reg Rover 825SD (Reg - R825JNL no less) on the back of a recovery truck, naturally I went after said truck and almost ended up on the other side of Birmingham, I gave up after a while, at least i know where it was going. Truck turns out to be from Taroni's Auto Salvage of Birmingham, a well known auto salvage place.

Will give 'em a call tomorrow and see if I can get a proper butchers at it.

If anyone is interested themselves, see details:

Rough bit of Brum that.

Phoned them up today. Cant say they are the most helpful people I've ever spoken to. Sadly the car has gone straight to the crusher

Shame because the panels etc... looked in good condition.

I did try and speak to the miserable truck driver at some lights, funnily enough the lights changed quite fast, usually they take ages to even think about changing to green. So I didnt have much time/chance to ask about it

I do have some photos of it albeit slightly blurry.
