Caught the very start of Top Gear last night, what was the thing about the SD1?? I didn't watch the whole program.

It was a tribute to the Rover V8 engine. Richard Hammond, as part of his feature, drove an SD1 V8 in a circuit race (not sure which series - pre-1982 cars I think - Top Hat?) and didn't do great but finished nonetheless! Well worth watching again when it hopefully gets repeated!

Did you see that poor 2CV getting blown away by a 747 Jumbo last night? I suppose that's off-putting for 2CV owners, but then nothing short of a T-34 tank could run behind a jet and not get blown away. That eurobox Mondeo proved it. And that shot of all the motors that have had a Rover V8 lined up together! Oohh! Suits me sir! I wanted every one of them, even the Sherpa at the back!
