Well, I had a soft spot for the old SD1 Rovers - had a couple in my time - a diesel and a 2.6 Auto.

And no, the doors never fell off - I have a suspicion that was 'engineered' for entertainment value!

And as for filling the buggers up with water! What was the point in that for God's sake? It's not something I'd ever consider doing in the real world so the information as to which lasts longest is of little real importance is it?

Indeed MG. It must have been a pretty sick Sprint not to lap faster than a Datsun 120Y - my old one, in standard trim, was lapping Goodwood as fast as a works MG Maestro in 1991. And some may scoff at those, but they were pretty damned quick and we bot would happily see off Escort RS Turbos and the GTIs of the day.

And a Sprint has four ashtrays :-)

Trawling threads that haven't been posted on since October 2007, changing an avatar back to one that is as old as the thread, finding video clips on YouTube.

Nick is bored.  ::)
