This one is probably my favourite just lots of memories of my dad taking me out in it. The red rover was in the papers for all the wrong reasons lol. Dad sold it and soon after was involved in a 10 million pound robbery from a security van ( failed attempt as they set fire to the cash inside ) and the car broke down on them as they tried to get away lol. Will try find an article on it. Edited May 22, 2019 by Humpy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its amazingly well and over engineered but at the same time you have to oil something and everything leaks oil no matter how well you seal it. Just impressed how years ahead they were. Looking forward to the article. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humpy Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 What price you after for the P5 out of interest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ideally £9k but it needs some fettling at the moment so I would let it go for £8200 as is. Its a solid car restored inside and out but just needs a couple of weekends to fine tune etc. You are welcome to pop over and take a look regardless if you want to buy or not. You cant beat that classic car leather/wood aroma can you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
