restored and in spectacular condition in London : prototype P6 $89,497

[falkor]

the whole story of the prototype V8 culminates in the fact that it is up for sale
magnificently told as if it is a reference book on P6, the article comes to and end with the line "Today’s very special P6 is for sale in London in restored and spectacular condition. It asks $89,497." great article though, brief but good pictures and nice details

It's not the whole story, or particularly well written, but it's a little bit of press about the car.

worth a read though, did you check out the comments? here's one

I always liked the Rover P6 but they were handicapped, here in the U.S. by a couple of things:

First was their traditional British reliability and propensity to leak oil everywhere

But second and mostly, they were burdened with some Englishman’s notion that Americans liked hood scoops, ala the 66 Pontiac GTO, and if one hood scoop was good, three would be better…..ah, no. No, no, no! It destroyed the looks of an otherwise very handsome car, and made it hard to take them seriously.

apart from that, who in the UK is going to buy a LHD P6 for £70,000?
