I remember all the Cov players getting a Rover 2000 each in the JH days. Hill negotiated some package. Ex-player Ronnie Farmer told me it was part of a wage deal built on success, one of the first of it's kind.

I believe all the playing staff were supplied with Talbots at the time of the Talbot sponsorship deal. I assume the gaffer got a Tagorra

I hope AA breakdown cover came with that deal.

You are right.. remember also seeing Garry Thompson in one too but JH always drove this sliver sports car, could have been a Lotus.

Nice. A simca van with a plastic hearse arrangement on the back.

Bit like a Forerunner to the Famed First Range Rover ,but smaller.

No. What was it? A hatch back? A saloon? Was FIFA a subsidiary of Talbot?
