• Owned by The Vendor for the last 6 years
• Recent interior and mechanical refurbishment

Auctioneer’s Notes:

A honest example of a P6 series Rover 2000 finished in Mexico Brown over a Beige leather interior. Owned by the vendor for the past six years and now reluctantly offered for sale due to ill health.

Maintenance & Condition:

The car benefits from a variation of work completed. The bonnet has been repainted from bare metal and replacement door window rubbers have been installed. Mechanically, the vehicle has been maintained with a battery replacement and carburettor service carried out in 2021. Prior ownership saw significant expenditure including new brake discs and pads, reconditioned front calipers and replacement of the fuel pump, alternator and tyres.

History:

Showing six former keepers, the car is accompanied by a modest but useful history file including old MOT certificates, the original owner’s manual and a P6 newsletter from 2021.

The Model:

The Rover P6 was a groundbreaking British saloon, combining advanced engineering with refined comfort. Introduced in 1963, it featured innovations such as de Dion rear suspension and a strong safety-focused structure. The Rover P6 2000 SC (Single Carburettor) was the base executive model of the P6 range, produced from 1963 to 1973. It is celebrated for its radical engineering, including a safety-focused skeleton base unit and a unique "Heron head" engine design.

Sale Insight:

A well-presented and honest example, benefiting from recent interior refurbishment and mechanical upkeep, this P6 offers an appealing route into classic Rover ownership.
