2026 is a very special year for the club, being the 40th anniversary of the launch of the Rover 800 Series, and to celebrate this special occasion they will have a six car stand showcasing all five body shapes produced during the production of the Rover 800, plus a Rover 600 restoration car as well.

This includes a Rover 825 Sterling saloon which is currently under restoration. The Sterling was the flagship of the Mk1 range at launch, powered by a Honda 2.5 litre V6 engine.

An example of the Mk1 Fastback will also be on the stand, along with many sales brochures from the 1980s showing how Rover positioning the Fastback as the more family and sporting orientated derivative of the Rover 800 range.

The Mk2 range offered three body shapes, saloon, Fastback, and coupe, all of which will also be present on our stand.
