Nice to see the interest in Rochdale cars is still strong.

  Hi there.

I would like to let you know that my Uncle owned a robin egg blue Rochdale Olympic,back around 1971.He bought it in
Toronto ,Ontario,Canada.Then moved in with us in Kitchener.
I was about 9 years old.He used to take me out for a donut
and hot-chocolate at Tim-Hortons.Back then there was not much traffic in town so he would put me on his lap and let me steer.It is still one of my fondest memories of child-hood,sadly my Uncle past away a couple of years-ago.I grew to love cars.While my profession for the last 17 years has been with Audi, I still have a soft spot and enjoy the small British sports cars. I found this site by googling the rochdale olympic.It is sure nice to see a owners club and that the memories live on as I was very close with my
Uncle Eric. Thanks!

  Hi all; I have never owned a Rochdale but did restore a Rochdale GT a few years ago with Les Brown. During that time I became very fond of the cars and really enjoyed the challenges of restoration and the pleasure in seeing a road worthy car at the end of it from just a pile of cardboard boxes.

Finally, is anyone aware of any forthcoming car shows that the owners club will be present at?

Cheers, Matt Butel.

  I had a Rochdale GT as my first car in the late 60s. I recently did a web search and found the ad in Hot Car April 69 for when I sold it for £65!
It was a great car but the poor cable brakes made it an interesting drive with the performance that it had.

  Looking for information prior to the possible purchase of a Mk6 shell.

Only previous contact with the marque was when beaten to the aquisition of a Rochdale (Model unknown due to poor memory) in East Cornwal about 30 years ago!
