Dr Doggystyle is on a distinguished road
long time no update...

When i thought the car was done in may 2015 my cambelt snapped and there was something wrong with the head (dont know how to explain it in english LOL) so here is a pic :



lucky someone here in NL had a donor diesel Rover 45 MK2 with the parts i needed and he fixed my R45 for me, i was very happy.
here some pics before :



















and here after :







and june 20 i could pickup my car and it felt like brand new

Another dutch MG-R forum member found out that my car was the 1st Rover 45 MK2 Sterling diesel that came from the NL MG-Rover importer and it was used in a test in the dutch autoweek magazine.
So i went looking for that magazine and found it.
Here some pics of it where you can see my car how it looked original :















this is how the R45 looked like at the british autojumble 2015 at 28 june in Waalwijk Netherlands
