In the mid 90's me and the girl I was seeing decided to go for a drink one Summers night. As we pulled into the pub car park there was a Silver 220 already parked up. We mused who could afford such a splendid car. On entering the pub, stood at the bar was Rod Stewart and (a very pregnant) Rachel Hunter. Clearly this immediately answered our question.
I gave him a friendly nod and he replied in kind. The g/f and I then went and sat in the pub garden. He left a while later, he showed his chivalrous nature by opening the passenger door and helping RH get in. He then got in, started the car up, selected reverse and promptly stalled it! He restarted it, and this time managed to move it without incident and drove off.
First and last time I've seen a 220 on the road
