Re: WHY My dad was the same with his MGB GT, he got the car and it was mint, engine worked, it had a few leaks around the windscreen which he patched and then he took the engine out to give it a good cleaning/soaking in oil. The car never moved again, and by the time I was interested in trying...

Ahh grats :D

I have got the correct glass with frames for both the front doors already, as it was easier than trying to transport just glass :) Unfortunately the previous owner, who had started trying to restore the car and either had bought "new" doors for it (or it had come without any) and the only...

Also, because I have to change the glass in the doors aswell, is it easier to do the locks and then sort the glass out, does it matter which order I do it in??

First I apologise for my simple descriptions, spelling and possibly grammar :oops: ........ I am technically a nub when it comes to a car, I can play with things etc but I have no idea what the bits are called :( I have done enough to the bodywork on my P6 to start thinking doors. After...

Me and my hubby were thinking of going with some friends, but they have dropped out an work is being a pain re holidays, so we might not be able to go :( If you see a red MGB Roadster with a strange bonnett with a V8 (from a P6) in it and a Gold XJS with a HUGH tent then that is probably me and...

You can often find me with my hubby at Wonderland Car Show, Waddinton and Last Blast which are big shows and so far I have seen 2 P6's 3yrs ago...... I might have to resort to fixing the brakes and electrics on my car, and drive it round as is, multi coloured just so there is a P6 at a car show...

Hehe, I will never worry about it. It means I got plently of people to ask if ever I have a problem :P :D ROFL I would have loved to see the expression on his face for that!!! :lol:

Errrr sorry. I have just relised I have probably insulted 75% of you guys :( Didnt mean it like that. It is just strange that I am interested in a car that most people are.... shall we say alot older than me... it is kind of cool, and slightly strange too. :D

Hi :) Hehe, yep probably alot safer than a motorbike :lol: Hmm this scares me slightly, when you had your first P6 I was 3yrs old, and now I have a P6 that is 12years older than me....... is this a bad thing????

Hia, I cannot help you when it comes to classic insure for under 21's as I am 26. But i must say I love the fact that classic cars can be at least half the price of a new car to insure. I own 2 cars. A modern 2003 peugeot which is a 1.4 diesel which costs me just over £500 to insure. But a...

Anyone got any companies that they can recommend for exausts? Mine has had a tempory repair to it at some point and it is very messy, so the exaust will need replacing from the Y piece onwards at some point. Its ok atm but I am not happy with it :(

That is awesome! :mrgreen: Am I right in thinking all it has had done is bubble arches, a chin on the valance, the little lump were the aerial should be (like what I see on the back of BMW's) the rest of it is paint? :?: When I first got my car I considered giving it some bubble arches...

Well guys you all missed a good day. It was a small car show, but plenty of variety!!! We had about 15 cars come an display, and we had many more come and just turn up and come have a look. It is a shame none of you guys could have made it as there were no P6's on display. To name a few of my...

Re: 1972 Rover P6 3500- Rescued! Yep they are cheap, I need some new tyres on mine when I get around to sorting the breaks etc. They are £35 per tyre here from my little village in Derbyshire. :D
