Jesus. :( Hope the driver lived.

Kind of nice to see it under the name wrecked 'exotics' though.

That has been hit on the rear O/S quater and I guess the drivers door jammed as they have taken the roof off which makes it look worse.
Engine bungled by Zippy, you know, George's Rainbow Smart Mate.

T-bone steak anyone? :D

I'm surprised it's on that site to be honest, most yanks don't even know what Rovers are, they think you mean Range Rovers.

TBH I've spoken to most nations peoplez and there only seems to be people from the UK who think Rover/MG are crap over priced cars.
ok you do get the odd one who thinks they not so good as home grown cars, but on th whole they do seem to be considered decent luxury motors.

I only think that, cause only 1 yank during the entire two weeks I was there earlier this year actually knew what a Rover was, and that was the guy at the car hire desk. :roll:

Isn't that because Rover was marketed under the 'Sterling' name in USA?
