:p Free to a good home is Brenda's 3500s. This car was featured at Wembley two years ago on the clubs restoration show, and it also featured in the December issue of P6 News 2003. This has been brought about by some issues that will come to light in good time. The car is in good condition...

For obvious reasons I cant divulge too much information about our members and their cars but the P6 in question could be seen around the mall and the surrounding areas, maybe quite a bit. I say no more? Paul. :cool:

Hi Peter. The show at Uxbridge is being held at the middlesex showground just off the A40, next junction after junction 1 m40. I think its a bit far from scotland but having said that Brenda and I have attended rallies up in scotland, we live near heathrow airport. The web site for this show...

Hello Sally. Unfortunatly all or rather most of the club officials will be attending the show at Uxbridge this weekend. I know by reading this forum that a lot of members will be in attendance as well. One of our members has a stand at this show every year and we always try to support him. I...

Just to add. The paint codes were in one of the back issues of P6 News, but can't remember how long ago. Brenda will sent the codes to Deborah again to publish in this months P6 News if she has room. Paul ;)

Hi Nick. The paint code you require is referance GL 28775. Mexico Brown. Rover used this from 1970 through to 1975. The paint was supplied by a company called Ault Wiborg. Your paint shop should be able to trace this. Hope this helps. Paul. :D

Richard, That looks really cool, i want one. :p Not too sure Joanne would be to happy with you saying she would cock up the directions though :p Can you do one for me but in the peugeot colour firedance, a bronze type colour. Paul :D

Also have just checked on the club data dase and we have a total of 364 P6's registered. Unfortunatly it does not say if they are factory fitted as the owner's of the cars only say that they have a sunroof. I can only asume that a very small portion of these are actually factory fitted. ...

Hello. If you have a steel sunroof fitted to you P6 and its an original one, not taken from a sdi, then it was made by a company in Birmingham called "Hollandia". Hollandia still make sunroof's and are still based in Birmingham, Ward End to be precise. I once worked for a company and had to...

If anyone is going to the scrapyard, the one in the photos, then the wind defelector is worth saving. The larger defelector is an item that is more difficult to find. Take the webasto roof off too if its in half decent condition, it can always be recovered. Wish i was up chesterfield and not...

Why is then Rover never offered wire wheels as an option extra for teh Rover 3500. I dont know why Jaguar can get away with them, maybe they are built different?. I am only repeating what i have read and been told by a P6 specialist. Paul.

Forgot to add, Rover also supplied the P6 with a set of four wire wheels. The spare was a steel rimmed wheel with the correct size tyre fitted. Hope this helps. Are any members attending the Ally Pally show this weekend. The club has a stand there and we are the only P6 Rover Club in...

Just a word of warning. Not to be a kill joy but the power of the 3500 engine, well the power it puts out that is, is too great for the wire wheels. You would most likely see them disintergrate. Rover never produced "wires" for the 3500 only the 2000. Also another word of warning. Check...

Hi all. The colour of the car in Johnny's post ( start of this thread) is avacado. Just out of interest, with the club we have, 1- Ebony X 6 2 - Buckskin X 5 3 - Bronze X 2 4 - Sandlewood X 3 5 - Blue ???? X 1 ??? Where the owner got blue from who knows. Regards Paul.

Malcolm. Why go tothe troubleofdrilling the holes ( okay thats how they were originally fitted) but why not use double sided tape thats used to fit number plates and other things as fitted to " modern" cars. I think it would be much easier. Paul ;)

No it wont be classed as an advert, because basically the car is free. The only restriction that has been placed on the "selling" of cars or parts is that the revenue is being taken away from the P6 news and therefore the mag will suffer and hence a probable hike in membership fees. Sorry to...

I stand to be corrected but rover did produce a 4 litre engine (v8) with a 4 speed manual gearbox. It was a pre-production car. This car has recently been sold by a long standing club member to another club member. Just for the record the engine was fitted into a 2000 base unit. regards...

Just to throw a spanner in the works, i use to own a 1972 (k) reg 3500s, it now rests in the great scrap yard in the sky, only through pure rot may i add. I use to run it on unleadded fuel, no additive, no nothing, just petrol, and never had a moments problem with it. Well only when coming back...

Phil. I am under the impression that it is a opitional extra and quite rare, But i stand to be corrected. Paul. ???

I stand to be corrected but when i looked for a exhaust for christine, i went to my local exhaust stockist who scoured the country and drew a blank. This ties in with what i was told by a club / committee member who is also in the trade. as they are no longer available. Paul. ???

Yes. If you lift the rear parcel mat- thing there are mounting holes underneath. I cant remember if they were static or self rolling up watsit things. Some one will know. Hope this helps. Paul, The Chairman. Oh just remembered, i have seen a p6 with inertia (oh thats the word i was looking...

Remove the chrome trim from around the roof edge, remove the roof lining from inside the car. This will reveal a row of screws along the top of the rear and front screen. Along the edges of the door shuts (top) there are more screws, remove these, then ease the roof away from the body. There may...
