The Rover P6 series was produced from 1963 to 1977 in Solihull
and was the sixth and the last of the 'P' designated Rover designs
to reach production. The vehicle was marketed first as the Rover
2000 and with a completely new design. was intended to appeal to a
larger number of buyers; the P5 was sold alongside the P6 until
1973. The 3500 was advanced for the time with a De Dion tube
suspension at the rear and four-wheel disc brakes (inboard on the
rear). The unibody design featured non-stressed panels bolted to a
unitry frame. similar to the Citroën DS and won industry awards for
safety when it was introduced. The car featured all-round seat
belts and a carefully designed 'safety' interior. One innovative
feature was the prism of glass on the top of the front side lights.
This allowed the driver to see the front corner of the car in low
light conditions. The Rover P6 series was voted European Car of the
Year in 1964; the very first winner of this title. Rover made an
attempt to break into the North American market with the P6
beginning with the Rover 2000TC.

This Rover V8. 3500 automatic presents in good all-round
condition. the body shows very little sign of corrosion and the tan
leather interior is clean and tidy. However. the car has been off
the road since 1992 and as such is a non-runner. Supplied with a
V5C registration document. this Rover V8 is currently registered as
SORN. A great project for someone with some mechanical knowledge;
we would recommend interested parties to view the car in person.
Offered for sale at no reserve.
