Yes i finally managed to get a set to replace my old motobuild copies. It was all perfect timing, my ZT had just gone up to start being stripped down for it's respray when one of my customer's mentioned he had an old set he bought back when MG Rover were still around, but found that they wouldn't fit any of his MKII ZT's. So had a feeling he had mki pods, and after seeing pics he send me of them I was pretty certain they were the right ones. Just to check I sent the photos to Lydia to see of she thinks they're mki or mkii pods and I think you had a look at the pics as well and agreed they were mki pods

Went up to see him to see if they would fit my mki 75 I had at the time, which they did. Very lucky as I was worried they might be tourer ones.

Stunning car, looks great

I did part of the restoration on and painted the Rover SD1 Police Car a couple of cars down from it.

Hi Peter, was good to see you too

She's still pretty poorly unfortunately, only just started showing some signs of improvement yesterday. Slowly getting better.

If it's the MG Rover Kent & Surrounding group you're asking about, I think they do regular meets in Kent however I'm not sure where. Bob (FlyingBanana) may be the person to ask. I've only attended some of their larger meets such as the meet at Hever Castle last year

Must say that is an absolutely beautiful example, dare I say it .... a bench mark for all would be Rover /MG owners.
No offence to anyone else's car of course but the bar has been set pretty high with that stunning example.
Credit to you, you must be justifiably proud.

Excellent, really Excellent lots of pats on the back and an extra cigar. Chris S.

Those rim protectors are some of the lamest things I have ever seen.
