August 1st means taxing a different car for the month. This time I am using my newly acquired Rover 620 that I actually bought about 2 years ago.

Thank you to my friend Neil for all of the hard work on this lovely old motor.

  • I do like a Rover 600 And you're never too old to have a go on the swings!

    Trees are masters of disguise - you might not see it again! šŸ˜šŸŒ³ A random Elvis impersonator popped up at 11:25! After a bit of internet research I discover it is a character called 'Nathan Barley'. Perhaps he is an associate of Mick Hucknal? šŸ˜€ Was that a new Mustard-Tune during the intro? At any rate I don't recall hearing it before. Its really rather jolly! A nice effect at the playground sending the background into 1950s black & white while keeping Captain M in present day colour. I hope Cabbage Lion & Poppy were able to join in the picnic! Biscuits

    Excellent cars these, John Humphrys still has his 600 he bought new.
  • In 2003 I was presented with a company car. I was given a choice of car, albeit a limited choice and as it turned out not really a choice at all. I could theoretically have had a Citroen C5, a Nissan Primera, a Vauxhall Vectra or a Renault Laguna, but that would have meant waiting for one to be born and in the meanwhile I wouldnā€™t have had a car which wasnā€™t ideal. So, a Renault Laguna that they had sitting around it was. It was ok, nice and light inside, comfy, looked quite smart and I wasnā€™t bothered about its terrible reliability reputation because it wasnā€™t my car. I was quite happy with my new Renault Laguna but for one thing - that stupid key. Couldnā€™t attach it to proper keys because the hole you were supposed to put was in such a position that your proper keys would scratch around and rattle. Couldnā€™t not put it in the hole and leave it in my pocket and also if I put it in my back pocket and forgot about it then I might snap it. Which I did. An agreeable car, if youā€™re not bearing the financial burden of operating it, ruined by a stupid key.

    Good looking motor for her age. Lovely daily
  • The Rover 600 series, what a lovely looking car, I'd go as far as saying a beautiful car. It's great that Harry Secombe is back and being used as a family car again and that you are enjoying it. Long may it continue, hopefully until it's tax exempt!
  • "I'm going to pretend with my Rover 600 to all the people around that I've got myself a Renault Megane". Good idea Mustard, now you'll never lose your 600 key.

    So,is 'arry a keeper over the long term? Looks like you've been getting some actual SunšŸŒ… and warm weather for a change šŸ˜®(!).
  • 11:25 Oh, I went there the other month. I think I must have missed half of it though.
  • "Don't know where the lid's gone so they might have gone off by now" - throwaway line of the year! šŸ¤£ Good to see Sally Haircomb in action (apart from the steering wheel which looks well out of place imho.)
  • Do the car a good turn and for once do the headlining it will look so much better, i am sure Allegroman will help.

    I live opposite a nice little park which I often go over and play on the swings and I am nearly 50. My wife tells me we should never stop swinging šŸ¤”
