Yes, my dad bought a 75 in about 1954! he bought most of his cars from Lockwood & Greenwood , next after the Rover was in 1964, an Austin Cambridge Auto.His last car was a Rover 620 auto.
Last time I looked a few weeks ago , there was a BRG 75 tourer on display in the showroom, 04 reg I think. The firm started before WW2 and as far as I know is still in the Greenwood family.

Hi Bill
Thank you for comments on your dad’s loyalty to Lockwood and greenwood.
I found it very interesting.
I guess I’ll keep this duster in the glovebox of my R75 as a collector’s item lol !

Hi Kevin, great to see you still posting, trust you and your good lady are well, Jane and I are fit and enjoying life in rural Wales, you could use that duster to polish your war medals. 😁
