This is a pretty big model - and was given to my kids 2 years after this photo.

I need a good condition 3500 auto prop shaft - the one I have on the car vibrates terribly at speed. Ideas on where I can get one? ( postage would be to Belgium!!) Thanks

Hi I have to change a ball joint rubber before the dreaded "controle technique". I have the ball joint rubber (thank you Rover Classics) Hopwever getting hold of a "castle nut" is a bit of a problem. (I suspect the original will have to be cut off nd so would rather start the job with a...

A few years ago I spotted this amazing car at a rally and took some snaps - Will get around to putting a selection on youtube one day - but here is a taster

Alas here is my 2000TC abandoned outside

Thank you Richard for help on how to post a picture! Now I can bore everyone!!

What does Cat C mean?

This afternoon the rev counter decided to over read by a good margin. On tickover claims its doing 3000+ revs (it isnt!!) I was using my RPM counter to estimate my speed as the speedo needle oscilates wildly. Any quick and easy fixes for the RPM dial for an incompetant?

After an unbelievable period of unemployment (which was starting to threaten my P6's!) and also giving up on the London taxi which went through a blind mans MOT in the UK.. I need to source a cheap reliable car so that we have at least one running spare! Any suggestions (thinking of getting in...

Just to give everyone a laugh. We have a broody chicken and as she has been sitting on the eggs for well over the 3 weeks - I foolishly investigated. I very carefully chipped away at an egg to see if we had life inside. Alas - It literally exploded The contents consisted of green smelly (and...

In Belgium - the "MOT's" are done by the state in massive "hanger" like buildings. Personally I think this is the way. When I lived in the UK MOT stations were in many cases small garages who also sold the cars hey MOT'd - conflict of interest. (or MOT stations who got a lot of business from...

The time is soon to arrive when I have to reduce my car collection. Basically - I am currently selling a 3500 auto estate in need of restoration, (I havent advertised with the club as 99% of the members are in the UK and I am not) However I will also be selling either my 3500S 5 speed estate...

Not sure if this is the correct section - but here goes. Soon I will have to part with one of my P6's and the estate will be staying! To help me decide whether to just take her off the road or sell her What is the value of a 2000TC LHD in good running order. (new rear brake calpiers...

I need to justify the existence of my 2000TC, the only way I can do that is to make running her a lot less expensive. Has anyone done an LPG conversion on one? I have asked my local LPG installer who said would be very difficult due to the lack of space between the carbs and the inner wing...

My 1972 2000TC failed my countries equivelent of the MOT today 1. Because the rubber was missing on an over-rider!! (Passed the previous 2 years with rubber missing) 2. More seriously on emissions. The CO² has to be below 4.5% and I am struggling to achieve that (in the past it has dropped...

Possibly a stupid question!. But will the carbs for a 2200TC fit a 2000TC? Im talking about the whole assembly including the inlet manifold.

I know its not a P6!! Can anyone advise a garage in teh South East - preferably Kent and nearish Dover/ Canterbury that can do the kingpins on a Fairway taxi? There is supposed to be a place called "taxiworkshop" in canterbury but I can find no trace on internet searches. Its supposed to be a...

Well absolutely knackered! Fitted New servo and front calipers on the V8 (not bled them yet - thats for tommorrow) And then changed the alternator on the 2000TC - arrgh - I will be the first to admit that I am no mechanic, and so maybe someone who has a clue would have found this easy -...

Had the wonderful experience today of losing my brakes!! All the brake fluid had dissapeared and no sign of a leak - I refilled the reservoir and with a good deal of pumping the pedal - got slight braking to enable me to move car. Repair kits seem to be few and far between for the 3500S. The...

I need a set or even 2 sets (to keep a spare!) of air filters for the 2000TC The other Rover club offers them to members (of which I am one) but the lines of communication are down - ie have contatced sevveral times) Where else can I get a set? There is a single one (you need 2) on ebay. Can...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NgKUHL5o5Tw With the encouragement of my eldest (not that I needed much!) we filmed a hill climb and some nasty bends. He did the filming I did the driving. I hasten to add not competitive and public roads so no fancy driving

Not sure if this is the correct section (can we have a chat section back please?) Anyway - on youtube P6 V8 going from 0-120 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdQ63oujQZc

If anyone has access to a Motaquip catalogue?? What engine is the filter VFF227 for? (ps sorry for posting in welcome section - but there doesnt seem to one for silly questions like this!)
