Just realised I've had my Ti for just over 6 years (got it late Feb 2011), so the longest I've owned any car for.

Was my daily driver for the first 2.5 years, but it's been on the drive and SORNed for the last 3.5 yrs.

Got a fair few bits I was going to (maybe will at some point) fit to it; T25/T28 hybrid turbo, boot spoiler (needs a respray from NFR to Epsom Green), mudflaps (which I wouldn't mind colour coding to car), rear sunblinds, GMax lowering springs

Had my coupe turbo for 11 years too, like Baz. Can't see me parting ways with it any time soon. Has been off road for 5 years now but will be on the road very soon.

I've had my 600Ti for nearly 10years.

Daily driven between 2007-2009. Then spent a very long time off the road until 2016 where it was brought back on the road for a year. Enjoyed it much more than when it was standard and still felt great. Lots of thumbs up and compliments in such a humble but highly underestimated old rover.

Turbo upgrade and new engine management coming this year. Love the TI.
