I was a scout camping in Talybont on Usk 45 years ago and there were a bunch of derelict vehicles in a yard so I snuck in and took a look at a 50's Rover P4
No idea if it was a 75 or a 110 or what but I just loved the chrome and leather. Sadly an old boy came out and chased me out of the yard.
10 years later I drove back there a hundred miles to see if they were still in the yard and whether we could do a deal. Same old boy chased me off his land again

Shame, remember there was a green Velocette too.
