Thanks for the info Ravinder.

As you say, what a shame as when I looked at it shortly before being towed it seemed in saveable condition.

Well, I’ve just come back from the scrapyard and I’m sad to say this car has been wrecked. Someone overnight has damaged every panel on the car. It’s had a good kicking, unfortunately. Me and my friend went there this morning to try and get some panels off it. Sadly, we couldn’t do to the extensive damage to the bodywork. Not one panel went unnoticed by the scum that did this. I really wanted the boot lid for Mrs Singh as mine was keyed previously and it would of been perfect. The boot lid initially looked very good. Once opened, its clear someone tried to open it with a crow bar and sadly damaged the bottom of it so it was no use to me. All we got was the mirror caps, some of the plastic trim that goes along the doors and some mats. Engine has been ripped out by the scrappy to sell on. Only 45k on clock since new. It really is a sad sight and almost shed a tear and it’s not even my car.

I tried to save it Bob but the enforcement officers and DVLA were utter useless and being very awkward and said I can’t have it. I have a feeling the scrapyard bought it when it possibly came up for auction.

Which Rover do you mean? Oh, you mean the 800? I didn’t see it there....
Only a couple of 75 tourers, a saloon, an F and TF and a ZR. The TF was also a Monogram.
