Hi everyone,
I'm Del, I'm 41 and I live in Forest Gate in East London.
I've wanted a P6 pretty much since I was a kid, my Mum had two 2200SCs, a brown one that was originally owned by the Labour party and a blue one, but both were scrapped I always promised myself one when I passed my test but never felt I could risk taking the plunge when I had to have a daily driver. But now, I live near Tubes and buses and trains, so a car isn't necessary but would be handy, so a P6 would be ideal!
I'll have about £1000-£1200 to spend, and I'd like a Series 1 2000TC or 3500. Would I be able to get something in pretty good nick for that? Are there any specialist Rover mechanics near me or even dealers?
Also, I've always wondered, was black an official factory paint colour for P6s? I think I've only ever seen one...
