Rover P6 3500S Estate Estoura V8 Very Rare Classic

Just 150-160 Estate conversions were made of which perhaps 80 or so survive. This one of the rarest - A 3500S model - ie a manual gearbox, under 10 converted.

I did hear somewhere that the musician and presenter Jools Holland once owned one of these rare cars.

Rumour has it that a few were used in stock car racing - which as such a rare vehicle is rather a shame!

If anyone has a picture of a Rover P6 hearse, they were done - but I have never seen one.

The Rover 75 "Police car" at 0.50 is currently being restored by the Rover 75 & MG ZT owners club. Amazing that it turned up here. :)

@malcstag Panel Craft and Crayford. Crayford tried to badge it as one of theirs but Panel Craft threatened legal action I think. Full story on ARonline.
