Red Leather Seats

Join Alicia for Friday Photo Flashback at More than Words.

This is a photo of my Dad's Rover. I think it is a Rover 500, it wasn't his first car but it is probably the first one that I really remember.   It was black and absolutely solid and had beautiful red leather seats.  It is parked in the backyard of the house that my mum still lives in. Although there have been a few changes to the garage, and there are paving blocks rather than gravel on the ground, it is still very recognisable. We moved to this house in 1965, so it is probably around that time.

    They don't come like that any more, eh?! Leather seats come as extortionately-priced extras if available at all and cars generally look somehow less, well, respectable!

    That's when cars were made good and solid - and love the sound of the red seats x
