I thought so, let me tell you about the time I exploded my other one by repairing a fuel leak with crazy glue! Some people should just not be trusted with these precious cars.No - they'll explode!
Now, that makes me feel better. I am just being "forward thinking" by putting the quarter panels on a Series 1. I just love the look of vinyl? Thanks all, from a novice in the states. Talking about the one i just bought up in Washington state still listed on the Rover Club of Canada site, Arden green 1968 200o auto. She's a beaut, just don't point her up a hill!It's fine.. they were developed on the series 1, but not put into production until the series 2.
Great photo, looking so sharp! Really appreciate the positive response to my question, just bought panels from Pierre at Rover Parts in UK, great supplier for these cars and I believe well known here. I hope to post a photo once they arrive, Cheers!Mine was already fitted with black vinyl rear quarter panels when i bought it. In a white car i think that the contrast is nice, so i have retained them though the years, even if i had the chance to get it back to original.

I also ordered a seat base so will at least need to remove that part.
Like I mentioned, everyone knows these cars are best left to the handy.
Would it be wrong to install the vinyl quarter panels on a 1968 2000 auto? According to the ebay listing they were on the later models. Thanks for the advice.
Depends on your level of nicompoopery.
Good suggestion but I find it much easier to just buy the fancy bits rather than tackle that mystery leak! Then there's those 200 quid mud flaps with the fancy insignia I bought...sighWhy don't you just cover yours in vinyl? It's got to be a whole lot cheaper than fitting replacements.
Haha! On a scale on 1-10 I am a...13!Never sir! A man's levels of nincompoopery are his own private kingdom. I shall defend them with my life.
