At least the Vitesse I bought was fitted with the LT77 gearbox and was a twin plenum model, this one has the god awful Borg Warner 65 fitted.......yuk !
I realise a lot of people like them, but they were a poor follow up for the P6, and the Ferrari Daytona rip off styling.........well I don't think the Italians had anything to worry about

It was where Rover lost me until the 75. A poor P6 follow-up indeed. The bean-counters were in control. Sd1 was supposed to have the P6's De Dion rear end but ended up back on a live axle due to cost. They don't look quite as bad to me as they used to but l'd only buy one if it was decent but very cheap. So that ain't gonna happen.
