A "basic Rover" is much like an "entry-model Rolls Royce". An interesting concept which, if it exists, serves only to devalue the marque, but which, nevertheless, knocks the spots off even a top-of-the-range Ford/Vauxhall/EU or Japanese equivalent.

Entry model only means CHEAPEST.--The sales folk were scared to say cheapest as that would put off lots of folk from buying the car.----Doesn't actually describe the car at all.--It's meaningless.---

Wow, beautiful car!

Very glad I am getting my own white 75 soon.

What has happened with her now? As she is SORN and untaxed.

There has been no need to tax her while the pandemic has been with us as she can’t go to any shows or meets, so the club is saving on the pennies by putting her on SORN

Is the car safely under cover for the winter? If not, I may able to provide secure dry storage without charge.

It's in dry storage until next year, but thanks for the offer.
