Happy New Year everyone. I haven't been on this forum for ages (my apologies) but the car has been running faultessly. Upon doing the monthly electrical checks, I've found that the brake lights are intermitent, they worked 8/10 times when pressing the pedal. I've had a look for a switch on the...

Thanks for the detailed reply Chris, I'll take a look when the rain stops!!! LAWRENCE

Apologies for sticking this under the V8 engine heading as there isn't any where else which is appropriate. Anyway, since purchasing my P6 last year, it has been VERY slow to re-fuel i.e. I cant stick the fuel nozzle all the way in & pull the lever on fully as it will click off within a second...

Chris, Did you manage to get your car in, and if so, what day(s) will you be going? I'll be there on the Sunday. LAWRENCE

Hi'ya John, Wet??? Itstarted at 09.30 & didn't stop all day:( , still a very good turn out of cars any way.

3 P6's spotted on the Sunday at this years show, anyone on here??? LAWRENCE

Dave, The fuel guage is working perfectly.

I tried that (earthing the lead) on the old sender unit & the guage wenr right over into the red, the new sender unit does exactly the same. I was told that it just shows that the guage is working when it goes over like that? I'll give Ian a call tomorrow. Thanks. LAWRENCE

Thanks for that Rick. It did move, but only very slightly into the green area. Ho hum, off to try a new guage now ???

Since purchasing my P6 (V8), the water temp has been a constant 85 degrees (or half way on the guage), until last weekend that is. On the way to yet another car show (deep sigh from my wife :D ) the temp only rose to the end of the white section before it joins the green. Thinking that the...

On the way back from the AROC Stone twinning event today, I passed "Lake View" house on the A523 Leek to Macclesfield road with 4 P6's outside, they looked in a rather poor state. Anyone on here??? LAWRENCE

Well we had 2 P6's and a Lancia Beta VX join us at Charnock Richard before setting off through the Lancashire lanes & fells. Upon arriving at Holker Hall, there was a local P6 waiting for us, along with 20 or so Morgans. a few photos are here:-...

Rich, When you put it into gear, does the car jolt as well? Mine used to tick over at c1k RPM, but since I've had the carbs balanced, she now ticks over at c550RPM and when put into gear, there's no harsh jolting. Does this mean that we'll be seeing you this Sunday??? :D Lawrence

Well the route maps are done, the weather for the route is overcast & cold(ish) but DRY, all we need now is a LOT of cars :D . I've had a few enquiries from non Rover owners, so come on you lot in the North, let's show them. For more information, I can be contacted on 07979-016274. Thanks...

Harvey, I'm with you on that sentiment, it's a wonder that he's made a living at all after all the effort that Ed China puts into the cars and then sells them on for a very small profit,it may have something to do with the TV regulations?
