Glad you are looking after your car Thomas. Just an observation, do your headlights need polishing to get the lens clearer. I hope your dad keeps improving.

Look after yourself and don’t fill your drive with more Rovers!

When you find out the price of a new pair you'll be off like a rocket down the road to get a polishing kit.

Just check the headlight prices at Rimmers but make sure you're sitting down when you do.-----

I think it's a car that they try out various changes on during development.----

Thought I recognised your car, then I see your just down the road from me in Otley, (pics in Morries in Guiseley I believe). Have to give you a wave if I see you out & about, (I'll be in my little Orange Aygo ... until I find the right 75/ZT that is).
