  Hidden Heroes: Rover 45 2003 Model Year 20 Dec 2019 (News)
  The old ‘R65’ transmission was co-developed with PSA and Rover’s share of the intellectual property was kept by BMW to use in the new MINI, so MG Rover was buying in gearboxes at an inflated price. Its procurement department brokered a better deal from Ford, so some hasty reengineering was carried out and from MY2003 onwards, the 45 got the slick-shifting five-speeder from the Ford Focus - another car that was renowned for being great to drive.  So while the interior was clearly more Travelodge than The Ritz, with Formica-style dashboard inserts that looked like the bar in a working man’s club and a nasty aftermarket stereo, beyond that the 45 was way more than the sum of its parts.

  HJ’s Picks for Historics 20th August Classic Car Auction 18 Aug 2016 (News)
  253 Ford Capri 2.8 Injection 1986. This is a late Capri 2.8i with a sensible engine upgrade, power steering, wind open sunroof and excellent panels showing no sign of rot or filler. The way fast Fords have been going lately, I expect it to comfortably exceed its estimate of £12,000 to £16,000.

  With the European Trophy at stake for the Kiev to Paris section many cars were working hard. In the Vintageants, again Mike Reeves in car 38, the V8 Ford Coupe, proved to be the quickest on 8:04, just a couple of seconds ahead of car 15, the Ford Model A, now going better thanks to finding a faulty electrical cable from the coil that was the cause of yesterday’s misfire, with the red Chevy - who say they are backing off and taking it easy - still stroking it along up the hill to set 8:33.
