Thanks Guys. I'm loving the photos of your projects. It shows me that it is indeed possible to repair this given time, effort and practice. They'll also be useful for reference Although the car has been sat for 18 months and the battery had gone flat I charged the battery and she did start...

I've started with the off side only to start with. I found a patch put on by a previous owner which had just been stuck over the rust using what appears to be silicone sealant (it wasn't even welded on!) and covered with copious amounts of underseal. I had been driving around blissfully unaware...

So three years later.... Repairs have been slower getting started than I would have liked. I took the Rover off the road about 2 years ago as i found a rust hole. I spent about a year trying to get someone with some welding experience to help me to no avail. At the beginning of this year i...

I'm still looking for a pair of these if anyone can help. I've been keeping my eye on ebay but not found anything similar as of yet.

Hi All, Some ne'er-do-well has vandalised my beloved P6 and snapped off both my wing mirrors and stolen them. I am looking for some serviceable replacements. They were the chrome type that mount toward the front of the wings and not up near the doors. If anyone has some spare then please...

Thanks for the advice! The good news is she did pass her MOT the other day, so am pretty confident the safety areas are sorted (touch wood). I will be focusing more on the cosmetic work for now and will leave structural stuff to the guys at the garage. It's more of a tidy up on a budget I'm...

Hi. Could someone point me in the direction of a good 'how to' guide for bodywork repairs. I have tried TV shows like car sos but they always seem to gloss over so much. My Rover is starting to look sorry for herself with cracking/flaking paintwork on the bonnet and rust holes in the wings. I...

Unfortunately I was just a passenger and couldn't follow them :(.

A little further up the road were a pair of Morris Travellers on a similar trailer. I wonder if they were going to a show somewhere.

As promised

I just spotted two Rover P6 Estates on the M5 near Worcester. Anyone in here? They looked fantastic. Someone should be very proud. Photo to follow later.

I believe you are referring to the intermittent wiper speed dial.

Revisiting this way old post but I had that side plate replaced with a new one once the parts were back in stock.

I have tested my seatbelts by travelling down the road and pulling on the belt whilst braking. The mechanism works fine and catches even at a fairly modest deceleration. It gives me peace of mind that if anything unfortunate does happen I should be protected.

It's not the garage in Kingswinford by any chance is it Andrew?
