v8 on eBay
Glad you took a punt (and that it's in decent condition!)
Must meet up sometime post-corona as we're quite local Andrew

Rob, there’s a good friend of mine on Facebook who could perhaps help with a badge for your car, his name is Byron Ewart Rowson and he’s in a few of the Rover MG groups

Cheers one and all, can't wait to get it on the drive, must say I was nicely surprised it was so straight, and with all the work the guy has done, proper work, with care not shoddy at all. Dam he is so out of pocket right now.
I have had so many variants of the Rover 75 always fancied a V8 had several V8's in other cars, including an ex-police van, now that flew and boy was it loud. I do like the unimposing look of the 75 not shouting it is a V8, so the grill badge will be off in no time. I don't mind it is an MGR bumper, but I will be following up contacting Byron for a proper badge. Thank you David and Les for the heads up. However, I am still looking for a V8 Tourer Ben

Hi Victor I was born down your neck of the woods, South Cerney. I am down on occasions headed to Winchester, sometimes I take the M5 and drop down to Tidworth.
