1966 Rover

Last and most powerful of the super smooth 3 litres, this model benefits from the superior panel fit and trim quality of the BMC era cars. A desirable combination with automatic transmissions, power steering and the single chrome flash which carried forward to the P5B . The survival of this P5 is owed to its hibernation during the low value years of the 70’s and 80’s when most other P5’s were ruined with poor maintenance and lack of appreciation . Following its re-emergence from storage in the  1990’s, the car was photographed for a Practical Classics article which now proves the outstanding original condition of this vehicle. About five years ago, we prepared the car to the next level with a bare metal repaint to a high quality, and sympathetically detailing the wonderfully original engine compartment. Bright work is excellent and the interior remains in supple and excellent original order. The car has been enjoyed for weekend motoring and attending enthusiast events in recent times with its genuine mileage now standing at 56,000 since new. Finished in Pine Green with Moss Green Leather and complete with original under- dash tools and a lovely folder of paperwork going back to when it was new. Compared to other luxury classics, this elegant P5 seems good value.
