Interesting information, but none of those are Rover Group designed cars, predating the creation of that last desperate hurrah by decades.

MG RV8s have their batteries behind the driver's seat, with the engine in the front, and were designed and built by Rover Group.

Although that's probably cheating just a tad as it's a heavily reworked MGB rather than a clean-sheet design. :D

The mini from 1959, had the battery in the boot.

The MGB had 2 * 6 volt batteries, under the rear "seat" either side of the props shaft. 

Later MG Bs had a single 12 volt in one carrier and could be a bit of a sod to remove.

The level of "want" I have for this is, regrettably, inversely proportional to the levels of space and money I have. Damn.

What a beauty, that's almost late registration madness isn't it? Must be the last of the run if nothing else. I don't remember many 600's on a V plate

I don't know how/why that happened!

Great to see that one still around. I knew of it when it was with its original, very long term owner and managed to get a photo on one of my visits to see him in 2012:

1974 Datsun 100A 4dr (E10) 1-owner from new

Eventually it moved onto someone else and came up for sale, I think at least partly in primer. The fact that it's red again suggests it's had a respray, and it does appear to be missing the odd thing like the Datsun badge above the rear plate.
