The BMC/BL rally is always a popular show that attracts a large amount of people and is a good opportunity for all sorts of enthusiasts to get together, whether you display a Rover P4, Triumph Dolomite or one of the very last Rover 75’s, so where better a place to continue the promotion of the Rover 200/400 owners club?

Nene Park is the venue for the rally, so it’s perfect for a spot of camping and evening festivities the night before the actual event, ideal for a few drinks, barbeque and general 4-wheeled banter.

Show day itself started off early to get the stands set up and cars arranged before the arrival of the general public. During the course of the day, more cars kept arriving already adding to the large amount that were there, resulting in a great turn-out for everyone, including ourselves. This was greatly helped by the most unusual of circumstances, by the weather actually being perfect! Roll on next year!
