    speed awareness course

    I was caught doing 37 in a 30 and was offered the course as I had no points on my licence. I did the course and they told us that we didn't have to advise our insurance. However, if insurance ever asked you have to be honest.

    1:18 & 1:24 P6 models

    Phil, that is a fantastic line-up. I love the estate. There was something very special about your kits and being able to personalise them.

    1:18 & 1:24 P6 models

    Phil, You mentioned the 1:24 scale resin models you used to do in your original post on this. Weren't they the Outhouse kits? I bought two of those a long time ago.. I still have mine and I think my brother had the other. I loved these models. Would you ever have plans to redo them? Here...

    My slot-car (Scalextric) model of my Rover P6

    Sunday will be the big test. I am looking for more of these Lucky Toys, but seem to be hard to get at the moment. Plenty of the bigger ones, but they are no use. If I can find some more, I will be making more.

    My slot-car (Scalextric) model of my Rover P6

    The only Rover cars made by Scalextric were SD1s. There are also MG Metro 6R4s , MG Maestros and Range Rovers, but no P4s, P5s or more importantly P6s. FPF do make a resin bodied slot car based on a model of the Bill Shaw’s Racing P6, with flared arches and large bonnet scoop. However, I...

    Shall I,Shan't I,Should I,Shouldn't I,???????

    Much better looking without sunroof. Not a fan of personal plates either. A car's original number is part of its identity / history.

    Take Nothing For Granted

    Excellent job. That engine looks great. A very true story. Take nothing for granted. A number of years ago my oil light was constantly on. Engine sounded ok so I bought a new sender unit and fitted it. Oil light still on. I was actually starting to remove the engine when my wife asked me how...

    A Rovering Question

    A good puzzle. It's as well the Rovers were both P6s. (I assumed that from their colours). Had they been SD1s the calculations would become very complicated as you would have to predict at what point each would break down, how long each waited on a recovery vehicle and the speeds of the...

    How Long Have You Owned Your Rover?

    My dad bought mine in 1969. He had it until 1986 and I have had it since. So 17 years with Dad. 28 years with me. 45 years in total in our family. Over 245, 000 miles on it now.

    WOF - MOT

    I'm glad you passed but I know how you feel. Had mine there two weeks ago. For the first time ever they insisted on lifting it by the floor / sills. Every previous time they have done it under the cross members or suspension. I protested, but he insisted. He said he would use extra foam...

    Eh?!!

    I'm taking mine into the coffin with me. In 1000 years time when beings from another planet dig me up, they will be amazed at how advanced the P6 was.

    Eh?!!

    But it is in mint condition. I have every issue. Now thinking of selling them to finance restoring my 2 P6s.

    My 1968 S1 Rover P6B Three Thousand Five's Refreshtoration!

    Re: Resistance is/was futile!! It's NO mirrors at all for me. Don't drill any panels. Keeps it looking clean. I have none on mine. You get used to swivelling your head. That is one lovely P6. Will be one of the best when you are finished with it.
