 ;D ;D ;D at Jezzas bubble perm and VBH twitching like she has parkinsons whilst she does her piece to camera. I'm reminded why I never watch fifth gear (is she still in it?)  :D

...........but apart from those few details,a damn fine car.  :D ;D ;D
Only ever drove one,the steering was so light and devoid of feel,Icould have swore the wheel wasnt connected to anything.A bit unnerving.

Lol.....my aunt had one of the last of them....a Vitesse auto (twin plenum).

I remember being in it and smoke coming out of the trip computer.....which apparantly rarely worked anyway and was a swine to operate.

The other thing I remember was the Rover badge missing off the passenger side dash....its only when this is removed you realise that it hides the hole for for the steering column when in left hand drive format.

That and the rust.....so much rust.
