Marketing the Rover 800- Technical Reveal?

[snappermcgee]

I have a 1989 VHS Video of the Rover 200 that runs for something like 26 mins and it goes through maint and servicing for both the 214 and the 216. It was used for training purposes within Rover and even comes with a course guideline booklet. Its very informative and interesting for a Rover Enthusiast.

This got me thinking I wonder how many training and promotional Videos did Rover produce. I am sure we have all seen the famous "British Architect" etc Rover 800 TV ads on you tube and the 007 one for the Sterling, but I wonder if they did a Technical Reveal video for the 800 as well as the 200, or any other proper promotional videos for the model besides the TV ads?

I'm sure Rover have done a few publicity videos/packs etc... for the Rover 800, it just most of them have not reached the public domain

I myself have some mk1 publicity videos. One os the Salesman's Training Video (featuring Chris Goffey) I also have Company Fleet sales pack which includes some brochures, a letter from Rover, a keyring and a video. These packs were only distributed to companys expressing interest in purchasing Rover 800 for thier fleet.

I have also found some videos in youtube of technical training and introduction for the 1996 Rover 100, 200, 400, and 600. Not found anything for the 800.
