This Rover P3 is an attractive restored example of the refined classic British saloon, which is now a rare sight on the road. Under the bonnet sits a naturally aspirated 2.6-litre inline-six, which develops around 54kW and sends it to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission. This example is known as a ‘Six-Light’ saloon, which is identified by the presence of its rear quarter-light windows that were absent on the Sports model, and it is in desirable ‘75’ guise denoting the larger engine. The odometer indicates 6,288 miles, though this is not warranted. The P3 ‘75’ featured a 2.6-litre inline-six engine with a light-alloy construction, a steel chassis as opposed to earlier ash-framed cars, independent front suspension, anti-roll bar stabilisers, more numerous rubber bushings, and a ‘free wheel’ allowing clutch-less gear changes. This Rover P3 is finished in a timeless shade of black over cream leather-trimmed interior, featuring grey carpets and swathes of wood trims. It rides on black steel wheels with chrome hub cabs and Falken whitewall tyres. Equipment includes twin headlights, a three-spoke steering wheel, a driver’s side wing mirror, chrome front and rear bumpers, rear-hinged front doors, Jaeger dials, passenger grab handles, rear seat ash trays, and an HMV radio. Other features on this example include an electronic fuel pump, synchromesh on third and top gears, heating and demisting system, and hydro-mechanical brakes. Accompanying the car is an original owner’s manual, the tool kit and jack. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition.
