I'VE tried hard to steer clear of the Rover correspondence, but now that we have delved into the realms of the Beano and Towser (Letters, September 5), I feel impelled to tell you about our French master at Hutchesons' Grammar in the 1980s. He had a Rover which at that time was a powerful car with a V8 engine, however he insisted his had a K9 engine.
