    sounds like somethings got him annoyed but its a shame, you don't see many of these around at the best of times.

      Has someone been looking at SD1s?

      A mate has a Vitesse that I'm yet to see, as it's in Cardiff and has been off the road for years. From what I've seen in pics, I'm sure it'll be proper pimp style.

            Just happened upon it by chance I had one years ago when they were everywhere & cheap as chips, A 3500 SE, full of silly electrical glitches but never left me stranded, always got me home

                It's old, British and was a luxury car back in the day. Some Brits love Rovers and this was the last proper one that wasn't a rebadged Honda. It was also in the Professionals, amongst other TV shows, used by the Police and many of us grew up with them in the family or owned by friends or family. I used to go to school in a 2600 when I was 10/11.

                My Uncle had an 827 Vitesse for many years, so I have fond memories of those too

                Basically, it's the same as an old car, people love it for nostalgia reasons more than for anything rational.

                  The SD1 has quite a following in the uk and was a fast car back in its day.

                  This one is rare as it was constructed with no sunroof.

                  Can't see the attraction with them my self

                            Nearly forgot the legend that was Tony Pond and the SD1 rally car!

                            Also worth checking out Tony doing the first 100mph lap of the IoM TT course in an 827 Vitesse back in the early 90s. Awesome.

                              Just asked this question to the seller, hope he can see the funny side to it.
                              Why not just park outside the owners club and set fire to it? just a thought
