    Pimp my P6

    I think we need a thread like this to admire or scorn the creativity of the diverse community of P6 owners. We could probably do a similar thread on P5's and P4's.... whats that did I hear a pin drop? though I have got to admit I have seen the odd P5 or 2 with some far out work done unto them...

    Oil pressure switch

    What are the Rover part numbers for this part, this is for the oil light not the electric gauge unit. Mine is a 1974 9.25:1 engine. Mine seems to be a non taper thread with a cooper washer for sealing. Graeme

    If you could buy a new P6B in 2017-18

    What would you want it to have different from 1968? ABS, airbags, stability control...........be picky and detailed. What's on your wish list and what would you expect to pay given that the P6B of the day was an executive car to rival jag at its best. Graeme

    Who's up for Das P6 Electric

    Saw this and thought I would share http://www.theverge.com/video/2016/2/17/11034650/volkswagen-bus-electric-cars and of course it leads to thoughts if you can retrofit a German why not a Brit, Visions of an updated Gattaca? or maybe just a green light sleeper. Graeme

    Edward Heath and a P6

    Just spotted on the news.... perhaps not the best look, time and police investigations will tell. ** Edit** he was getting out of the drivers seat, not a P5B so I guess a personal ownership? Graeme

    What you don't know about spoons

    Last night, I went with some friends out to a new restaurant, and noticed that the waiter who took our order carried a spoon in his shirt pocket. It seemed a little strange. When the busboy brought our water and utensils, I noticed he also had a spoon in his shirt pocket. Then I looked around I...
