Sunday night quiz question
Here is a picture of a nice Rover 75 in Wedgwood Blue.
Look at the date of the picture [arrowed] and answer this. Why could you not buy a 75 exactly like the one shown during production at Cowley ??  Answers in one hour !! Dave T Last edited by Duotone; 3rd November 2013 at 17:21.. |

The lower grill area is black rather than body coloured?

Sorry all Cowley produced 75's had black sills, well, almost all, a small number were produced with body coloured sills, but not very many. I hope you meant the lower bumper trim. The lower grill is always black on the 75. Dave T |

Is it because it is a pre-project or pre production model. I know there is a good chance that I am wrong.
