British Sports Car

[Johann]

I learnt to drive in my dad's old Rover SD1 V8...

A few weeks ago, I was watching reruns of a British TV show about a fictional hospital, "The Royal." Made in the 2000s, it was set in the 1960s and one of the doctors drove an impressive Rover V8. There's another TV show set in 1960s Yorkshire, "Heartbeat" and I watch it partly for the cars.

And oh, looky - here's a Rover SD1 Van den Plas taking off. Turn up your sound!

And if you like British cars that are even older - try "Foyle's War" set in WW2 England. Det. Chief Supt. Foyle himself uses two elegant "Cop Wolseleys" and there's a whole site devoted to the many cars in the series: IMCDb.org: "Foyle's War, 2002-2014": cars, bikes, trucks and other vehicles
