    Delivery millage LOL, when I started work as a mechanic for Skoda in 1990 delivery millage was driven without the speedo connected, coming up to August1st we had car swaps all over the country, we did a 8hrs on the spanners and then drive 5hrs over night swapping cars with dealers and PDIs in the morning half asleep, when VW came on board with all the new electronics we had a setting for 'deliver vehicle" . One time we did a dealer swap but at a third dealer site in order to get the 3 cars swapped but the 3rd dealer had the set of wheels for one of the vehicles so 2 of us managed at night to swap the wheels on 3 cars at night in the rain and only get 1 of the wheels wrong that ended in Newcastle area and the other 3 in Oxford area at least we got the 3 cars in the correct places just not all of the wheels.

    they did come with alloys for most of their production run. but they were TD wheels and tyres, and those tyres are no longer available, so any left on the road have either had a later Rover 100 alloys, earlier pre TD metro alloys, or steel wheels with trims from those metro production runs. back in the day the vast majority had TD allows and tyres.

    There is nothing like the exhaust note of a Triumph Stag. I can't put my finger on it but if one comes or goes down the road it's a Stag & nothing less. Length of exhaust,bore of exhaust,placement of silencer ? Don't know but .......I love it ! The other car is the MGB..,.,.different note but same one-off identity.

      @@martinkendrew18 I do know them.We're talking about sound identity.Go out into the street & tell me the make of an EV at 1000 yards.Australia is alive with V8,6 & 4 cylinder cars,has been for many decades & because of that some are audibly identifiable as to what particular cars they are,NOT just the fact it has a type of motor fitted to it.Many brands here had 4,6 & V8 motors fitted to the same model (Holden Torana being one). I stand by what I said.....I know a Stag by sound,not that it's a V8 & I know an MGB,not because it's a "4"(a V8 or an MGC usually stumps me !). There's just that resonance of identity. Some have it,some don't.

It was a sad day when I eventually said goodbye to the car & the Ford motor company..
