As the above bar says, I have sold my Rover P6B 3500 v8 Auto Saloon. Colour: Mexico Brown.
I parted with my beloved last September 2021.
I got a good price for the car, but I miss her every day.

Hi Gripper, your cars colour looks the same as mine, i.e. Mexico Brown with a black vinyl roof. But it all looks very nice indeed! What's the engine like -- any problems?

I have placed the sale of my car in the above section, wrongly. If anyone can tell me how to transfer into the Selling section, I would be most obliged.
Well, drove the car to the venue at Tangmere Military Aerodrome for SERR ( South East Rover Rally) Yesterday all 16 miles (each way)! She started no trouble & no "bang". Ran sweetly both ways.
A fellow P6 owner suggested the bang might have been caused by low oil in the carburettor "pot"!! When...

Many thanks for all the information. Unfortunately, I am partly disabled with a spinal operation that wasn't a great success and a right knee replacement that also was not a success. All this coupled with my age ( I'm 73) makes getting under or bending over a bit of a problem!
So thank you...
Just to let you know, took my car for it's annual MOT last Tuesday 5/6/18. Result: Passed! As usual.
And no mention of reversing lights! So all's well! However, upon looking at the underside of the car (Tester allowed me to do that), I noticed a lot of oil on & around the sump as well as off...
Hi, just to let you know what the problem was with my car.
The culprit was a seized front off-side calliper and the Brake master cylinder was at fault!
Have now a new master cylinder and new front brake callipers, f/ o/& n/side plus new S/Steel brake lines/hoses.
Now at least I can stop!
