The only club for All Rovers

 

 

              News:

 

 

The Joint Rover Clubs, and MotoFest Coventry team are pleased to announce a unique event in Coventry on Saturday 16 March.

Owners of all generations of Rover cars are invited to display their vehicles in Broadgate (the main event space at the heart of Coventry city centre) – and at the original Rover Showroom premises on Warwick Row – still open to visitors as ‘LTB’ (aka the ‘Litten Tree Building’), a thriving Community Arts Space.

The Rover Showrooms premises is believed to be the first purpose-built Car Showrooms constructed in the UK – likely a lavish building where purchasers could admire new models, order – then collect – vehicles, built in the factory directly behind.

The Showrooms (uniquely, for the time) featured an electrically powered vehicle lift, allowing for the display of vehicles on upper floors. VIP visitors even included King George V, who in 1915, bravely rode the lift up – to inspect cars and munitions displayed on the second floor).

The Litten Tree Building will be open from about 8.30 with hot drinks being served inside.
In addition to the Bull Yard display, there are now over 40 post-WW2 cars booked into Broadgate, which about a 300 metre walk away.
The following activities are taking place in the Litten Tree Building:-
9.00 Informal internal tours of the LTB
10.00 Talks in LTB
      – The Rover Company and the Meteor Works – Mike Maher, RSR Chairman
      – Tom Commander talks about his grandfather’s role in Rover before WW2
      – The LTB building and the surroundings – Mark Cook, local historian
11.00 Short walking tour of LTB surroundings, led by Mark and informal internal tours of the LTB
