Well she passed another MOT today, for 44 years old it passes easier than my everyday car but why does it always rain when its booked in, the cars filthy. Pete

seam welded shells can be used in either, I know a lot of stolen ford parts go to Ireland as when my Cosworth was stolen I was shocked with what I found out but lets hope the car gets a safe return

The auction, would it have been at brooklands as a nice TR6 went through there today, I didn't see what it went for though, what car are you after now then.

I would imagine it is in a container in bits going to Ireland for the rally cars over there. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-31755960

I have short arms and deep pockets so not for me, surely that must be a regrettable sale, I think I would hold out for ardy to sell as you still have a P6 as your daily. Pete

That TR6 looks lovely.

I am impressed that your using the old girl in this weather, I cant bring myself to take the car out in fear that the salt will leave me with a brown pile of dust where once my car stood. Pete

I believe that being a cat B it can only be used for spares and purchased a by a licenced breaker/dealer. Pete

Thanks, painting it up over Christmas and will fit in the new year. Pete

How easy is it to replace the diff, I have another as the last one had a leak, after putting in a garage to have it done they made a pigs ear of it, so able to tackle on axel stands or a nightmare. Pete

The first rover I have spotted in my area down at ruxley round-a-bout Sidcup, looked nice and clean too.

This website gives you an idea of how many are on the road but does not specify year. https://www.howmanyleft.co.uk/?utf8=%E2 ... rover+3500

Pilkie you are the forums answer to Edd china and Mike Brewer all in one, keeping another classic on the road, I thought that would of been a keeper.

I have never really understood facebook, people updating that they are shopping or playing some game and got a new high level, My wife has an account but that's only to see what my daughter is up to, I will stick with forums for now.

I am pretty new to rovers and have had the V8 and a late 2200sc, to me the v8 drives nicer with power steering, proper gauges instead of strip speedo and sounds fantastic. Mine isn't original with full S1 looks, S1 interior etc but the joys of the S2 just wish I had more time to drive it.

That was quick. Thanks, never really take mine out in the rain so would never of found that one out. Pete

After having my car for close to 2 years I still have no idea what the little white nob on the left hand side of the steering column is for, can someone enlighten me. Thanks Pete

Certainly a wide range of ages, I thought that there would have been more 50+ than there is with the age of the cars etc but quite a few younger generations as well, can only be a good thing to keep the interest in the clubs and model. Pete

My car is getting very little use of late and sits in my pop up garage, what is the best way yo keep it, im worried about the brakes etc getting sticky. pete

now I am pretty much a rover virgin as mine is my first P6 and I don't see too many similarities between the 2 pictures, bumper and front valance are similar but wrong angle, bonnet different, grill different, saying that with over 40k in it surely in the flesh it must be a stunning car that you...

the joys of getting older, I pay £85 including breakdown.

I don't think I have ever owned a classic car and made money on resale, classic cars take looking after and making them the best you can be is part of ownership, I have come across some owners of more luxury marks a bit snobbish, best bunch I go to meets with is the north west kent morris minor...

just found out from another forum but aldi have got there tools on offer starting on Thursday, they are normally quite good quality. Pete

Certainly a wider variety of ages than I thought, not that im saying you were all old farts :mrgreen:

just curious as I think I am a youngster compared to most owners of the P6, I am 39 so am I the youngest. Pete
