Do you still have the Vitesse??? A fantastic machine if ever I saw one. I did have a Rover V8 in my old Scimitar Coupe a while back, that was a little on the quick side.

140 In a slab fronted, slab sided SD1? Amazing I’d say.
Do any still exist (outside of a museum).
A V8 Vitesse, set up by the book and not by Rover, 140 with more to go. Oh yes at least one more exist’s, and it’s mine. ******* dogs ********. Ask Yak 11 fan.

One has to remember that this was no ordinary road going SD1.

Before Leconfield got modified in the early to mid 90’s,I did my first ever rally on it in a Rover 3500 SD1,in the days when motorsport was allowed on it.
I remember touching a shade under 140mph on the main straight.
Great fun,and a superb venue.

As you probably all know, Leconfield is Normandy Barracks these days and is the home to the Defence School of Transport, (and the Seaking Det)
The Tower is used as the Driving Examiners offices, and that is where you congregate before and after the tests.
