What a great read this thread is. I've just read through it all from the beginning, and the number and variety of the cars is great. Nice to see all the shiny ones, and the ones that are no longer with us too.

Here’s a little update from myself...

Hopefully I am done with buying cars now for a long time. My little fleet is now complete, with two nice 1.3's - a Maestro and a Montego.

Here are a few of pictures for you all.

1) B797 TFC - I know, those black bumpers are not nice at all!
2) I really like the Blue interior - even if it is a bit basic.
3) A token picture of Ledders in the last of 2004's summer sunshine.

Nice to see TFC looking clean and shiny!


Paying attention now to the latest two in our fleet...

My More Gremlins 2.0i hasn't seen much change recently due to the weather, although it is now wearing *ahem* fairy lights.

Dad's Rover 75 (Eleanor) is only used at weekends, it's mileage still at 23k.

Rich, do you know there is a brand new steering wheel for your Monty on ebay at the mo?

Far easier and more cost effective to base both the 200 and 400 on the Honda Concerto than designing two separate cars from scratch if that's what you mean. I'd always seen the 600 series as being the closest replacement to the Montego.

Altough I hate to disagree with the boss - I feel that the 400 was closest to montego not the 600 - when did you ever see a 600 Tourer (estate).

to prove my point - hears mine looking sorry for itself:

Although I am a fan of the 800 it was a much-criticised car and the Rover 75 has been distanced from this by being a much better car which looks different and feels like a Rover should. The 800 always looked too much like a Nissan Bluebird.

I dont mind the nissan bluebird - think they both look nice though never driven one - have a question though - have got a dash and speed transducer for an old 800 for my digidash as sugested on other threads but why does the 800 have a transducer and then a dash that changes the pulses back to a analoge dial movment instead of using a standard speedo design - any ideas ?

Hi Patrick, nice Monty! I wish I had a K plater. Ed

Ed,

As far I know, all the last MG Montegos were black and had geographical area CAC.
