The Rover company manufactured cars between 1904 and 1967. when
it was sold to Leyland Motor Corporation. becoming the Rover
marque. The Rover marque was used on cars produced by British
Leyland (BL). who separated the assets of the original Rover
Company as Land Rover in 1978 whilst the Rover trademark continued
to be used on vehicles produced by its successor companies. The
Rover 14 was a medium-sized family car manufactured between 1924
and 1948. Civilian automobile production was interrupted in 1940
because of the war; however. when the war ended in 1945. the Rover
14 returned to the market and remained available until replaced by
the Rover 75 at the beginning of 1948.

Originally registered on 1st October 1937. this Rover 14 has
only had four keepers during its 8 year history. The current vendor
has had the car since 31st December 1962 and is only
selling her due to poor health. In 1965 he took the car off the
road and put her into storage before commencing a restoration
project in October 1999. This was completed in July 2006 and he
enjoyed using EGH 946 until a couple of years ago when the car was
stored away once more. Clearly some re-commissioning work will need
to be carried out on this Rover 14 Saloon; however. we did hear the
engine running and are advised that there shouldn't be any major
mechanical issues. The interior was re-trimmed during the
restoration and has aged nicely and the bodywork shows no real sign
of corrosion. A comprehensive and interesting history file
accompanies this P1 saloon including the original buff logbook.
Offered without reserve. this Rover offers an opportunity to
purchase an interesting piece of British motoring
history.

Hi, I understand you sold your Rover 14 in May, I have a similar car (of which I am the second owner for well over ten years) and am thinking of selling it. It is in original condition , always garaged , no rust and runs well. I would appreciate an indication of what I should be asking for it, perhaps you would be so kind and tell me what yours was sold for. Thank you and best regards. Ken Howard.
