It is a waste.. and will probably deteriorate more before something is done.. I would like one.. but have a P6...

and regarding prices - like SD1, the P6's seems to be increasing in price too - especially for a good V8..

Will sort mine soooooon...

I still miss mine and I sold it 30 years ago.

As a youngster, a V8 SD1 was the first automatic car I ever drove.
It was a director's car, at the place where I worked.

It was a bit different from the Midget, I had at the time, and the Moggie Minor that I owned before.

I was spoilt though, as I learnt to drive in my Father's 2000TC P6.

Despite the fact that the SD1 was launched over 40 years ago, I still think that they still look great and has not dated, like others.
A tribute to the design!

My uncle was a company director and the SD1 was his company car! I felt like a princess when I was in it. Which wasn't often, he tried to avoid having us weans in it at all costs he he in case we put sticky finger prints everywhere.

It was my uncle that had the SD1 too.. when we all (both families) went camping to Cornwall, I used to try to get to go in his car rather than my dads cortina.. lol..

They are fabulous cars.. and the interiors are so comfortable.. When the time came I ended up getting an Hatchback 800 which are just the modern "looking" SD1 in my eyes..

I didn't now you had a P6 Kev, I wouldn't mind a look-see.
My father had a P6, it was absolutely lovely, but he moved on to the Coritina, and then another, and another, and then another and so on.

Prior to Rover 75 ownership my last saloon car was a P6 3500S.

Here is a picture of it, with the rest of my collection at the time.



This was taken in 2000, the year that my V6 was built.
Now I am down to two Rover 75s, a Series Land Rover and a motorbike.
