27 litre Merlin Engined Rover SD1

Went Ashby Folville tonight in Leicestershire, a mad car show with everything and anything.

Amougst the vintage British and American classics, the modern Aston Martin's and Ferrari's to the heavily modified hatches stood one car that stood way above the rest.

A 1981 SD1 with a 27 litre V12 Merlin engine, LPG converted. It was surprisingly quiet upon start up but I'm sure I felt the ground shake. 1550lb/ft at 1600rpm anyone?!

Fair enough, good seeing in nonetheless. And Merlin or Meteor it was mighty impressive!
