I had a 51 plate Rover 25, It was a problem car from day one when I got it, then I saw the ZS on a Vauxhall dealership and ran home got a loan and got the ZS, a bit of an impulse buy as I'd had enough of the 25, if the ZS was never there I would probably still have the 25 LOL

Went up to have a look at it expecting it to be a 120 bit found it was debagged so I popped the bonnet and almost wet my self LOL that when I drive home as quick as I could to get some moneys :D

I can only remember one, a 1989 Rover 216 Vitesse, 15" x7.5" Compomotive 5 spokes, Motobuild induction and Motobuild striaght through exhaust. Was a lovely car, rust got a hold of it in the end!

Built a Chevette track car with a Rover V8 in it, then plopped the same engine and running gear in my Bedford CF350 van when I broke the Chevette up, last one was a Talbot Sunbeam, again with Rover V8, does that qualify?

Last and by no means least............ZS180 :D

Mat C - that maroon ZS you used to have is amazing! Sure I have seen that at Donny.

My first and only other car was my Rover 211. Loved it to bits until some pi$$ed up old bird pulled out of a golf club and rolled me over!
