Went to The Heritage Motor Centre in Gaydon yesterday and saw the last Rover ever made.

According to the reading, a small team of obviously dedicated Enginers stayed behind at the end and completed the cars that were on the line.

This was the very last, and was pretty much hand assembled.

Sad really.

True pretty sad. After quite a mixed legacy they were after all British. For all it's foibles I have. Very fond memories of the SD1. My dad had 3 V8s, an R reg bright yellow SE, an X reg"Cashmere" Vanden Plas and a B reg metallic blue Vitesse.

Even sadder that it's one of those w@nk 75s yeuch.

Thanks for the photos. Interesting to see.
