Anyone know any good websites for Rover SD1s? My Omega cooling system is ****ed again and I am getting sick of "sensible" modern motors. Once it's fixed, I am tempted to shift it and get something retro instead. Then I can fix it myself, like I do my Imp! Anyway, I am thinking Rover SD1 V8, Triumph 2500 (maybe 2000)... Any other ideas? I'm

How much money do you want to spend?,SD1 's are worthless here in OZ,I was given a RUST FREE example by my neice who had been given it by her father in law. He in turn had rebuilt the engine at about $7,000 cost.It came with all the toys exept sunroof. I sold it as it was for $800 to a guy who needed the engine for his range rover.... So if you are in market and don't mind spending a bit for shipping,here is place for a cheapie! ;D

This looks particularly tasty in my eyes. 2600S converted to 3.9 V8All the +points of a genuine Vitesse, but without the whopper price tag. Mmmmm.

We've got a set of alloy wheels from an SD1 Vitesse knocking around in the garage if anyone wants them, you could get the wheels then find a car to go with them! :-)

NickB, THAT is what I'm talking about! Gorgeous! This is just the kind of big ol' luxobarge I am looking for in case the modern basket case is too much to get fixed. I don't care that it's been converted... I'm
