while we're talking LAC...

[SAM LETZRING]

Don't know about "80"s Rovers but I had a late 60's Rover 2000TC- what a
car!!

Used it in gymkhanas- and used to tow my Formula V to races with it- neat
car!

I was on the way home from my doctor's office yesterday on 520 heading
over Lake Washington. Ordinarily I don't moon along in the slow lane. But
I had a pain in my jaw & teeth that's been going on a couple days and the
pain meds my doctor had just given me hadn't yet kicked in. I didn't have
much concentration left for driving &:-(.

Anyway so this afforded me the opportunity to get passed by an interesting
car that was being driving somewhat energetically.

The car was an 80s looking 4 door with hatchback, along the lines of an
Alfa GTV-6, in a dated dirty mustard color. While thoroughly grimy
and perhaps not styled 100% to my taste, the engine had a very aggressive
note to it and I felt compelled to follow the car for a while. I got
close enough to see the badge "Rover" and "V-8" before the guy really put
the hammer down and I just didn't want to follow any further. (Thank
goodness I see an endodontist tomorrow; I can't take much more of this.)

Does anyone know anything about these cars? I did a little searching on
the net and think I might have been looking at a Rover SD1, but that
doesn't tell me anything.
