Rubber overmats "Rover 2000" manual

Posting for a friend: Unsure how rare rubber overmats with "Rover 2000" embossed in the inside rear corners are - probably rather a lot - but my friend is looking for a pair to replace his old ones, at least one of which is holed. The other type of overmat with "ROVER" in large lettering is an option. Any help appreciated, and if it makes a difference the car is LHD so even a usable, single nearside mat would be of interest...

Regards

The original (1964 on) 'Rover 2000' rubber ones are stupidly rare. I've only seen two or three in all the time I've been peering into P6's.

I'd murder for a good set myself, they just don't exist anymore. :(
 
Hi Nick,

OK great, that settles my query :) I'll advise him to store these old ones and help him find a set of the newer, more available type... Thanks!

Regards,

Tor
 
This type?

I've only the one, and it's 'used'. Still, would be better than a ripped one I suppose. :)

I've also a passenger side ROVER embossed one - can't see me using either of them to be honest.
 
That's them Jim. Only ever seen red ones myself, and only passenger side ones. I'd kill for a full set in grey/black.

Cheers

Jim that's very interesting. Looking at where the logo is, is the top one a left-hand side one also, then? I could probably use the other one myself, managed to rip off a piece or two from mine, which also has some brake fluid stains on it...
 
Nick - I assume drivers side ones are a different shape at the pedal end?

Tor - they are double sided, and have the 2000 logo in the bottom left whichever way up they are used. I suppose (given Nick's comment about pass/drivers side) this is so the same mats can be used in either LHD or RHD.

The ROVER logo one is a passenger side (of a RHD) - might be OK for a LHD drivers side, but there might be a need to alter the pedal end to fit around the pedals?

I'll get some clearer pics of them both - both are used, so not perfect. They need a clean - I'd describe them as useable though. :)
 
Hi Jim,

Sounds good! You have PM :)

The ROVER logo one is a passenger side (of a RHD) - might be OK for a LHD drivers side, but there might be a need to alter the pedal end to fit around the pedals?
The way mine are, there's no cutout or other adaptation to pedal movement or heel reinforcement/pad on either side.
