Hello Again Everyone! Thanks a lot for all your help! HarveyP6 said he could put me in contact with a P6 specialist close to me so I'll see what happens there and hopefully it can all get sorted! but in the mean time that advice certainly gives me something to do in my lunch breaks in work on...

Sorry I havent posted on here in a while ive been busy with my new job amongst other things but we took the P6 in for her MOT today and she failed on her rear brakes 001 Nearside Rear Brake recording little or no effort 002 Nearside Rear Parking brake recording Little Or No Effort 003 Parking...

yeah ive havent seen very many in sage green, i was looking at that as a possible first car seeing as i passed my test a few months ago and im still on the look out for a solid P6 for a first car! it does look very nice and at £800 it seems quite fair!

ouch, its a bitch when annoying small stuff like that somehow manages to make the whole car not look as nice, okay cheers ill have to keep my eyes peeled for a set of S wheel bolts!

so is the position of the air valve hole on the S trim the only thing thats needs modifcation to fit them to an auto?

hello again, Thinking of fitting power steering to the Rover, she is a 1971 3500 Auto and i wondered if anyone could tell me how much it would cost, where you can buy the kits from and if you can do it yourself? Thanks

yeah ive seen them trims on a P6 at a show i went to last year, did look quite smart i must say!

okay, thanks I'll ring around for some quotes then, thanks again
