any other forums worth a look? :)

just found this one My 4.6 litre Rover P6B - The V8 Owners Forum - guy on there from downunder chatting in 2008 about his 4.6 litre P6

some nice photos and the final post is the most amazing :eek:

My 4.6 litre engine has always been more fuel efficient when compared to the original 3.5 litre engine that powered my Rover for 33 years.

Last week whilst driving from Bathurst to Granville (New South Wales, Australia), a distance of 111 miles (179km) I am very pleased to say that I achieved my best fuel economy to date with 30.3 mpg (9.3l/100km).

It was a hot day too which may well have helped,...36 degrees at Granville with engine oil temperature in the sump reaching 105 degrees C, coolant temp 85 to 90 degrees C and inside the car....49.3 degrees C..ouch!
inside the car....49.3 degrees C? holy cow
 
If anything an extra hot day should have had a negative impact on the fuel economy, so he did even better!
 
hmmm, comes from Sydney and has a Rover P6B?

No, don't tell me it will come to me - I'll tell you later ron

:)
 
Thanks for putting the link up Yes there are a few forums out there also a lot of V8 engines custom forums
However the ones I have come across are years old posts still with good info though
But saying that if I have a problem with my P6 I use this forum the people on here are amazing
I often use the Search Tool that I think is over looked in this forum there is so much you can bring up old posts of problems or members projects dating back years I wonder how many hours could you spend reading all the old posts
 
I don't think he's been on here lately ;)

Why read about him on there, when you can read about him on here?
I was just doing a google search "P6 Rovers" I think, something like that and on page 9 of that search up comes V8 forums with that thread, so looks like its just Classic Rover Forum , V8 Forums, Facebook groups and thats about it maybe , my original question was "any other forums worth a look? " that's all :D
