Inspired by Trigger's Ford Accessories Brochure thread here's an Austin Rover one from the same period:

That's great, thanks for sharing! I've never met Lord Sterling, but the picture of the guy with the brick phone and briefcase standing next to the Rover Sterling is how I imagine him to look.

Yes! This is how I've always aspired to be. The full late 80s executive with Mk1 Sterling, a brick mobile phone and an 80s suit.

+1 on the executive guy with his brick phone. Looks like he has a rover monogramed breif case too. That man is going places!

 

 

Those lattice alloys look great! wonder what they were an option on?

Excellent stuff.

 

I had an A reg MG Metro in black.

It was quite nippy but had no brakes and a leaky sunroof.

 

I saw it's performance figures recently and realised it only had 72 horses.

 

But I suppose it's how you drive, not what you drive, eh?

[Conrad D. Conelrad]

72bhp probably isn't so bad considering the weight of a Metro.

I would imagine that the SD1 accessories brochure lists a caulk gun and a tube of silicone sealant.

I want that car phone in the Acclaim, I'd look like a right yuppy!
