    Doesn't look like I'll be buying...

    A family member has just offered me an excellent condition modern motor, with 12 months ticket. And it's free, gratis and for nothing. I still want a P6 but She Who Must Be Obeyed is making dark mutterings about things that could be done with the money that I'd spend on the Rover. And in a way...

    P6's on eBay...

    One more, a white S1 2000TC, needs rear doors and a front wing apparently. Looks good underneath but I'm no expert: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CLASSIC-1970-ROVE ... 630wt_1165

    Models of the P6

    Which are the best ones? I was in a well-known model shop chain earlier, and they had a Vanguard model of a 3500S. To be kind, it *was* vaguely P6-shaped, but it certainly wasn't what I would call excellent. When I compared it to the models of Minis, Escorts, Capris, and even Alfettas that they...

    Red P6 3500 in Essex

    Now moved to the (hopefully) right place! Is it OK to link to other forums? 'Cos I found this while Googling 'Rover P6 for sale': http://www.autoshite.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?p=163282 Again, probably won't be around when I have my money sorted

    '72 3500 Auto...

    I think I may know you from somewhere else in cyberspace...if I mention the name Andy York? :D There was a shot there of one of your P6s which I mistakenly thought was on wires.

    Hello from a (hopefully) soon-to-be first-time owner

    Hi Chris, Yes, I did see that one, but the auction will have ended by the time I've got my budget sorted. Still, it does lessen my concern that cars *are* out there that I'll be able to afford!

    Poorly (probably) P6 - East London

    Outside a timber merchant in Forest Gate, East London, there's a brown (tobacco leaf?) P6 S2, which is starting to look rather sad. I've only seen it from the bus, so I can't see the badges to tell what enigone it has. I've been going past it for about two years at various times of the day and...

    Hello from a (hopefully) soon-to-be first-time owner

    Thanks for the welcome, guys! Interesting on the black issue. I wonder why it was so limited? Although I suppose if you look at the competition, they weren't offering much in black at the time, so maybe it was just a sign of the times. I *may* be able to up the budget slightly, depends on how my...

    Hello from a (hopefully) soon-to-be first-time owner

    Hi everyone, I'm Del, I'm 41 and I live in Forest Gate in East London. I've wanted a P6 pretty much since I was a kid, my Mum had two 2200SCs, a brown one that was originally owned by the Labour party and a blue one, but both were scrapped :( I always promised myself one when I passed my test...
