Rover P6 in Cyprus
- Thread starter Martin3500V8
- Start date
I don't think the back of a P6 is that bad . I'm 6' 2" ish 20+ stone and with the front seat set for me I can still get in the back . OK ,getting in isn't that easy but when you've sunk into the back seat it's OK
Maybe it's because I have the front seat fairly forward to get leverage on my non - power steering and the heavy clutch

haha, looks small back there, never had the pleasure? misfortune? to sit in the back and i dont plan to anytime soon, the angle the seats are in the back looks as though it may be a bit of a problem to get out! :laugh:

I know what you mean about using V8 as a daily driver Nick! I had to use mine every day when the Mrs rolled our Mk2 Escort 
I used it everyday for 2 months while I was busy repairing the Escort. I'm sure that the steering used to pull violently when ever he got close to a petrol station!!! :laugh: 40 quids worth of petrol a week isn't funny though, when your journey to work isn't that far............ ???
I too have often heard the P6 referred to the worlds first 4 door 2 seater! I don't mind this, because I always have the best seat in the house ----- The drivers seat! I've offered to let the Mrs have a go on several occassions, but she's too scared of him :O Oh well. The only time I get in the back of mine is to clean it. I remember earlier this year 4 of us went to Croft Circuit in Erik, I can still remember her squeaking when I hung the back end out! I thought the thing that said it best about the P6 though was on the way back.... I was the only one awake! It was a bit scarey though, getting home and seeing him white up to the door handles with road salt. Oh, that and the fuel bill!!!!!
