Seriously though its a great topic. I've seen so many really good examples over the years, both standard or modified.

Give it a couple more weeks for Crome to finish that Tickford, I think.

Otherwise, I might be marginally biased, but I'm still half in love with Andy's flame red 420 GSiT.

I'd gotta say a 420gsIt does it for me and I would say my black one, as its rare standard factory solid black, but its not been driven so I'd go for tompinneys as its got the fulll rs kit as well.

It's got to be one of Mr Pinney's Rover fleet. I've done work on both his Coupe and 400 and they're both extremely nice.

I agree with Mark's top 5 :)

I'd also love for Grants bubble to still be alive and be a secret project as it had one hell of a spec and alot of thought had went in to the bit's he was adding 8)

Rofl, you could change the title to 'Post a picture of your own car'.

Maybe from here onwards there should be a clause of 'not including your own car'.

I forgot about Mr. Pinney's 420. That's got to have a very high spot.

Ah frog it, theres loads of awesome cars on Rovertech, which is a good thing. Whats also nice, is that they arent all 220 turbos, which , 3 years ago, is what they all were on a thread like this. Its also nicew that they arent all bubble turbos.
