Marc are you a member of the Rover sd1 club? They have quite an active forum if you ever need parts or advice.

I love SD1's, I have two! Oporto red is such a great colour too especially with a pale interior.

Yes. The only other difference is that the rear should have had square corners but mine are slightly rounded, so if you do get some make sure you ask for that.

£29.95 posted. Cheaper than standard plates from Halfords!

I got them from DMB graphics. http://www.dmb.uk.com/ I emailed Dave photos of mine and all the measurements, he then sent me some screen shots of prototypes so i could make sure i was happy with all the spacing and type face and then he made them up. Very happy. I tried fancyplates.com as recommende...

More bits to bolt or double sided sticky tape on!

First off i lost half of Saturday morning going to look at a potential donor car on ebay. Steve (Rovercoup) spotted it on ...

I was just browsing this forum and found a thread dating back to 2013 here ..... http://www.rover800.info/forum/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=10394 And on page 2 a load of photos taken from Flikr of Rover 800's. I did a double take when i saw this! http://i.imgur.com/LUuv4md.jpg Yes its my car, no idea when ...

Thanks for the comments. Yes the prestige wheels are on matts 827sli. They are the rare 16" version. I think the larger diameter wheels really suit the 800. I'm tempted to fit some later 17" Vitesse sport alloys. I like the look of those on the mk1 saloon. Marc, yes I saw your stunning vitesse at th...
