Default Rover Dealership.

What was the name of the Rover Dealer that supplied your car new? It could be lettered on the bottom of the original number plate or stamped on the first page of the service book.

Post up your findings,it could be interesting to read what make of car these dealers supply now or even if the garage still exists.

My car was supplied by Machargs of Glasgow which is now a Mazda dealer.

Dixons, at Monks Cross, York.

Went under circa 2008ish I think.

At one point Dixons was loss making and was bought up by none other than the Royal Bank of Scotland......
