1978 Rover SD1 | Coventry, West Midlands

The Rover SD1 was British Leyland's long, low fastback with a five-door hatchback body, and it won European Car of the Year for 1977. It is liked for its sweeping profile and for offering an executive car with the practicality of a hatchback. This one is the 2.6-litre 2600. This car is Green with a Beige interior, a period pairing that sits easily in 1970s and early 1980s settings. Most of the paint is as it left the factory, with only a few small professional touch-ups, and the bodywork is in very good condition. Inside, the seats, trim and radio are all as fitted when new, and the car seats four. The long fastback line gives film crews and photographers a clear period silhouette, which suits advertising, fashion and editorial work, and 1970s or 80s British film and TV. Factory paint and trim give music videos and event display a convincing period feel. It also makes a distinctive wedding or birthday car. The car is based in Coventry, West Midlands.
