Today i went to the combined Rover 800 30th Birthday and Rover SD1 40th Birthday event at the Mini factory Cowley. It was a really good day with lots of British Leyland cars turning up, plus some other decent motors. One particularly cool car was a Citroen CX Turbo 2 long wheel base. It had the plus...

Today i inspected the front brakes, to see why the front offside was getting so hot. I got the wheel off and undid the bolts between the caliper and the guide pins. Surprisingly the guide pins were fine and moved very easily, so that's not the problem. I then realised that the pads wouldnt come out ...

I don't think it was x cars, I think it may have been earlier. I remember 1 chase when an unmarked red Peugeot 205 got in the way and they get really angry!

Does anybody remember a TV program that featured a blue mk1 827 fastback as an undercover Police car. It was a documentary similar to Road Wars, but much earlier. I seem to remember it being honed around a lot and want to try and find it on youtube, but cant remember the name of the show.

Ill be there in my 800, so long as ive changed the brakes in time.

Yes, beautiful car. Let's see some photos of the leather.

Cool, thanks for all the advice on the plates, exactly what i was after. Ill give them a ring next week. After all my preparations yesterday, i got up at 5:30am and was in the car driving at 6am. It took 15 mins for a problem to arise. The front drivers caliper started binding up. I got a rhythmic h...

What a shame. The British Spring weather meant we couldnt use the park, so the event took place on the streets outside, reminiscent of a 1990's car cruise. Ahhh my youth! I got there about 10am and stayed till around 1pm, then made the long trek back south again. All the time i was there it was sunn...

Were you able to get them re done in a similar way? Ive noticed the rear plate is a bit bigger than a standard number plate too.

I took today off work so I could tackle a few jobs on the car before the Pride of Longbridge tomorrow. On my to do list was address some of the cosmetics. Unfortunately it pissed it down with rain here so I couldn't work outside. Instead I did some really limited and basically bodge type repairs to ...

That sticker is one of the things that sold the car to me. That and the Austin Rover keyfob.

Should this car have remote keyfob locking? as i only have 1 normal key?

Spotted this on ebay. It needs saving!

Every time i drive this car i like it a bit more. It doesn't even rattle much, the only rattle so far comes from the front bumper, which is bizarre. We had a works drinks evening last night. I used the car to collected a colleague, again they were impressed with how smooth, comfy and responsive it i...

I think it looks great
