Hi, I have been a Rover enthusiast ever since I started selling SD1's in '77. I progressed to being a Dealer Sales Manager in the 80's, after a spell with Mitsubishi I returned to things Rover with Barretts of Canterbury in '95 leaving them in 03 for a Motor Industry IT company.
I have therefore had the pleasure of driving most of the cars from new. My favorites were 85/86 Montego VDPi's and a 98 420D Saloon.
Now retired I have got (too?) involved with Montego Estates.
The 45 20D Impression was bought last year to use either as a daily or to donate its engine to a Montego (Shame on me, I hear you cry!)
.... but the 2.0i Estate has recently found me and so the 45 has to go as I only have room for 4 cars...
I will post the 45 Impression details separately in the For Sale section.

Re: New to the Forum, but not to Rover
Dad drove several Montegos when he worked for Rover. He had a VDP Estate at one stage. A real load hauler and comfortable as well!
Another car on the shopping list for when I win the lottery and can afford to buy a Warehouse!
