1968 Rover P5b Saloon SOLD

Rover P5b saloon, 1968, Silver Birch over Burnt Grey. Condition belies it's age, though it's showing around 101, 900 miles. I consider this is a good condition 2-1 car, a sound vehicle with an MoT to Oct 2020 (and no advisories!).

I have owned the car since 2009 and I returned it to the road in 2012 after considerable mechanical recommissioning and extensive work to the body (A & C/ D posts, sills, rear inner wings, jacking points and a plethora of other work and photos of the work carried out are available).

Barring usual issues to some lower door skins, body is generally in V. good condition, albeit the paintwork is showing it's age. The chromework is in reasonable condition and the interior is original and is 'commensurate with the age of car'.

The engine, gearbox and suspension were all overhauled during recommissioning and, as a precaution, I am just replacing the rear suspension Y bushes. The centre exhaust 'box was replaced for the MoT, as was the steering box and PAS system. There are good tyres all round, incl spare The chrome to the Rostyles wheels is considered 'adequate'on all 5 wheels. In terms of reliability - she's a good starter and runner. An electric fuel pump has been fitted. the car has taken me on many long journeys, including down to Devon, to last year's rover P5 National Rally, all without issue.

Overall, this is a good, reliable starter classic with scope for continuing improvement over the next ownership phase.

Happy to start 'discussing' @ £7250.
