Austin Rover Cars with Noel Edmonds

[1100HondaCB]

Austin Rover - Driving? No. Breaking down at its best.

[VTS1337]

Noel likes the Montego eh? Then that must be the explanation to his awful taste in shirts.

[geffel]

Alan Partridge!

matthewsemple,Armstrong Siddeley haven't built a car for nearly 50 years.If I build a car and stick an Armstrong Siddeley badge on it,you think that means it is one?If you do,can I interest you in a van Gogh painting I did last week...

[frglee]

The Maestro and Montego kind of still exist as the Chinese owners of the car design and plant shipped in from the UK added the front of the latter to the back of the former... Maestros were also made in Roumania well into the 90's,got a mate with an immaculate one of these that he is keeping as an investment. I think the Maestro design is actually quite decent,even by 2009 standards!

[EasyGimp]

they just dont make em like they used to lol

[postie2003]

"And the magic of Metro now comes with 5 doors"

But only four gears.... Would a "new aerodynamic front" ever have sold a car to anyone?

[boo66]

At least they admitted it was just a new front..

Remember the "all new" Morris Ital?

:o)

[epicmj]

meastro mg 2.0 turbo! very quick car.

bring back triumph cars!

[barspeed]

You never know, that Chinky company might do it?

[epicmj]

the chinese bought the rights to all the brands that come with the rover/mg group like [morris and austin]

but not triumph.

and i have found out that a group in midlands and bmw have started using the name for a concept car

so i hope they bring back a modern triumph stag or a

dolomite, spitfire!!

[barspeed]

Oh well, will have to see, thing is a stag and a spit will compete against thier own range....more like a relaunch of sumit like a TR?

[epicmj]

yeah true!

the new triumph concept range is tr/e [coupe ]stag?

tr/c [saloon car 2door] dolomite? tr/x4 [small smart car] and a mini cab.

[barspeed]

Not so much Triumph, as New Triumph, without BMW intervention, phew!

[numberstation]

Unless it's built in Coventry,it's got sod all to do with Triumph.Once these things are dead,they're dead.Putting a badge on a car means NOTHING,don't people understand that?All those blokes who worked together,the friendships,the life of the factory,is gone."New"Dolomite?"New"Stag?D­on't make me laugh.

[barspeed]

quite right, at least when MG was redone in 1983 and 1995 there was some conection with the past....

[Welloiledcog]

Hear hear - couldn't agree more.

[arospeed169]

@numberstation friendships, c'mon!, dude they were on strike all the fucking time they were no "friendships"

[smiffy1071]

Oh dear, I remember this ad. I must be getting old!

[Noce45]

obviously morons dont know you cant even spell

[kukluckinkrew]

how people buy these cars is beond me.

the only thing threre good for is a stolen ride home when ur pissed up and missed the last train

[barspeed]

What a muppet, people havent bought these cars since 1994! Guess if you steal cars you must be poor!

[austinmetrocity]

All rust-buckets by their 8th birthday! "No Deal"

[WJC007]

[mikepowell2006]

Haha, fun stuff. Good old Austin.

[joh2]
