Managed to spot 17 different Rovers and ZTs in one day of delivering around Barrow in Furness

Funnily enough, I was driving in a part of town I don't normally drive in Tuther day (Hartlepool that is) and there was 5 75/ZT models living there at different points!

And a couple of 25s and 45's

I live in a small town in Devon (population just over 11,000) and I know of five 75s/ZTs in the town. Mind you, we Westcountry folk know the value of hanging on to quality stuff...

A couple of my friends lived in Ulverston until a couple of weeks ago, and both had 75s. there was a 75 across the road from them too, and it seemed like they were everywhere on the roads!

I was really surprised that so many seemed to be in the same area. All different condition as well, some were really nice but a few were absolute dogs!

We were in Ulverston 2 weeks ago (silver 75 tourer) and I didn't see a single other 75/ZT - and the Laurel & Hardy museum was shut.

I work for an Independent Tyre retailer as a delivery driver and i see plenty of 75/zt's on my rounds. Mainly the South West.

I had one (the tourer hasn't been in Ulv with me) in Ulverston for a few months. Well my girlfriend did. It's a quite well known car on here I believe!

It's moved with us now to Broughton.

And another one off the streets of Ulverston now, sadly. This was in the local breakers a couple of months ago.
