Just a small update.
The car was up at the Scottish All Rover Rally a couple of weekends ago, which was enjoyable, and the car ran perfectly to Edinburgh and back, allowing me to fully enjoy the freezing air-conditioning.
I went to view a Rover P2 in it last week, and enjoyed contrasting a modern Rover with a 76 year old car, though unfortunately my friend didn't win the ebay auction. I went to Thirlestane Castle in it last weekend, purely as a spectator, to see the classic car rally, and on my way back my speedometer began wavering, and promptly died, followed by an illuminated ABS light. I checked the forum, discovered it was the offside front, and got it replaced this week. I've already done over 2000 miles in it since becoming the owner again, and it's been absolutely fantastic for all of the longer runs!
At the SARR, held at Lauriston Castle.


With a much older Rover.

On the way home from Thirlestane, near St Mary's Loch.
