If no one wants these bits by next weekend, they are going in the bin.

I bought an eezibleed many years ago. I wrote to them and they sent me a suitable cap for the P6 for free. Don't know if they will still do this.

Sorry, been away from the board for a week or so. These parts are still available.

I'm having a clear out of the garage and have a whole load of P6 parts. The parts include (but this list is not exhaustive)... Spare wheel and cover for inside boot Battery box lid Internal door "wood" trim strips (there are at least 5) "S" wheel trims Offside rear wing in usable condition I...

I've put my spare clock on ebay, along with a few other P6 bits

If you need some of the trim clips for the rubbing strips I have a set of them. I found them the other day when clearing the garage out.

I have a spare Kienzel clock in the parts that I'm selling. I repaired it many years ago, using fuse wire, as a spare for my car.

I'm having a clear out of my garage, as it needs re-roofing. I've also sold my P6, so there are some bits that need to go. All items are in Sittingbourne, Kent and are collection only. Set of leather seats. These are pale (I'm somewhat colour blind) and are in reasonable condition, with a...

How about a T16 turbo engine? You can pick up a donor 620Ti for around £400. For rear wheel drive you can use a gearbox from an LDV Pilot. The T16 turbo engine is 200bhp as standard, and with some minor modifications 250bhp is achievable. The stock internal on the T16 are good for up to...

That is correct. I believe that MGR did build one ZT with the 32 valve engine, but all the rest used the SOHC engine. BTW an anomaly in the cat tax system means that the Rover 75 V8 and ZT 260 are at quite a high rate (someone I know with one pays £425), whereas the SV and SV-R are only £195...

One of the reasons that MG Rover ended up with the Ford V8 was the purchase QVale. The Mangusta, which became the XPower SV, was powered by the Ford V8. The non-supercharged SVs use the 32 valve engine and the supercharged (only 4 built) used the 16 valve engine. MG Rover was of the opinion...

Would hardly call it an ideal engine to swap for the Buick V8. Remember, these are the 16 valve Mustang engines, so the design is nearly as old as the P6. It is also a 4.6l engine that produces only 260bhp and expect to get fuel consumption figures of around 25mpg when cruising on the...

I've got a stainless steel centre box from a 3500S that I would sell.

I've just listed a P6 3500S on ebay. The engine starts, but the car has been neglected for many years so needs a lot of TLC.

Most likely cause of the heater not blowing hot air is the valve on the bulkhead, or the hose that is attached to it. If the hose attached to the heater control valve is fitted with a Saab valve, then this is the most likely cause. Another possibility is the water pump. These seem to have...

The modern Rovers use a 4.6L Ford V8 Mustang engine. These engines were used in the Rover 75 and MG ZT.

The wheels are steel, painted black. They are similar in principle to the Rostyle wheels.

No, it wasn't the Equipe. Mine was white with black sills and black panel on boot lid. Similar to this one, but not in as good condition...

Here's my list (the ones that I can remember!): 1972 P6 3500S (currently on ebay) 1974 P6 3500S (currently in my father's garage) 1971 Range Rover 1972 MGB GT (currently in a showroom, but in need of restoration) Austin 1300 Triumph Herald Austin Allegro Sport MG Metro 1300 (early one with...

No, they didn't. The 45 is fitted with an L-series diesel. There is a lot of misinformation in this thread. The V6 engine is a KV6. It does not suffer the same problems as the K4. The V6 is a very robust engine and does not suffer from head gasket failure (apart from early engines fitted to...

Those seats look very similar to the set that I have sitting in my garage. Mine are white (or light cream) and are leather. If anyone wants to make me an offer for them, they are for sale.

Not true! I run an XPart AutoService Centre, and we can get practically every single part for the MGF. The rear hydragas spheres are likely to become a problem in the near future.

The MGFs are good reliable cars, provided that you keep an eye on the cooling system. Any problems with the cooling and you will almost certainly have the head gasket go. The radiator is tucked away and can only really be checked from below with the front lifted off the ground. There are 2...

Yes, the car is a 420Il fitted with an engine from a Rover 620Ti. The boost has been would up to 10.5psi, which is about the same as the Monty as standard. I've also got Spax RSX coilovers on my car.

Not really. Most of us drive KV6 powered cars... However, I took my Rover 420 turbo to this meet. http://s10.photobucket.com/albums/a140/ ... uto400.png
