MG Rover Group Display At Farnborough Airshow

MG And Rover Cars Displayed At The Farnborough Airshow 2004

Rover 75

The Farnborough Airshow is again being well served with displays from MG Rover Group with product arenas, a specialist chauffeur service and high-speed demonstrations along the main runway.

Visitors to the international event are greeted by product displays that include the latest Rover 75 V8 and MG XPower SV sports car. The entire MG and Rover portfolio are displayed at key locations around the show ground.

VIP visitors to the show are personally chauffeured by a fleet of Royal Blue Rover 75 Saloon and Limousine cars, to a destination within the event, of their choice.

The afternoon air displays are initiated by a high-speed run of a specially prepared MG ZT-T V8 – believed to be the world’s fastest estate car – which is driven by Gwyndaf Evans at speeds approaching 200mph - before the parachutes are deployed. The same car achieved 225mph on the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah, USA.

The Farnborough Airshow is on until Sunday July 25th.
