[ROVERNET - UK] Rare TCs

[David Sheuring]

Steve,
Mine has all of the same as Steve's car does and is
Corsica blue with black interior. And my vin # is very
close to Steve's as well. Just thought I would let you
know.
David
PS: By the way, this is the car that is referred as
the "crummy blue Rover" by our esteemed friend, Glen.
