    The Beech Hill Garage site mentions that they have another one due in on Dec 17, worth investigating.

    The one Beech Hill have just sold is No 650. The one they've got coming in is No 605 and they've been told is was one of the Rover V8 press cars.

    Well, I did eventually hear from the person I sold my Rover to. He still has it and intends to keep it so I am still looking for a nice car. I would now consider an MG 260 MKII as an alternative. So if anyone is contemplating selling their pride and joy please let me know. I would like to find a low mileage example which has not been molested, apart from the two-sixties recommended mods.

    Probably have missed out one or two nice ZT260's but have to say it is the Rover V8 I'm really looking for still. So, if someone has a nice example which they are thinking of selling, I will be pleased to hear from them.
