Interestingly .. how do you get on with Mr Plod / MOT with that front number plate being where it is ?? Certainly not "vertical" or in the proscribed position by C&U regs ..   :)

only parts not rover are the moon discs on the wheels-the bonnet vents and side trim are genuine rover as are the little spoilers under the front-plod had them to stop front lifting at speed-aparently-but they only had 3.5 to play with :y

Love the car, but moon discs are the worst possible things you could ever have put on it  :P

Apart from furry dice, like  ::)



Just my very humble opinion, keep it up  :)
