I want one of these. I live in Kansas. Preferably one with left hand drive, but I'll settle for a postal version. I here you can buy these for like $150 USD in the UK. Would some one be willing to send one to me Fed-Ex or DHL?

Maybe ten years ago. I had one, bought it non running for £500, sold it two years later, untouched, for £1000 or so

Don't be tricked into buying a Rover SD1. They're the same car but with a 5 speed manual gearbox and shite everything else. Suspension, brakes etc were all built cheaper to meet BL budgets

I found 2 in the US. A nice one for $10,000. A not so nice one for $800. I regular one for $3000 Canuckbucks, but I'm not allowed in Canada ever since the Patriot Act.

still waiting for your email m8

dont be fooled, the front end styling is godly but the rear end looks straight out of the 1950's. The engine is unreliable trash typical of period English build quality. Not to mention its shit power output for an 8 and its electrical gremlins.

A COMPLETELY FUCKIN DIFFERENT PROFILE

>>15166443
nah, that be the SD1 you're talking about, P6 is a living leg end
>>
>>15166525
Every Rover V8 is hit or miss.

>>15167162
no mate, pre BL Rover engines are on par with Jaguar and Rolls Royce engines of the same era.

for instance when Wolsley built the Princess(not the effin BL one, google it) they offered either an RR inline 6 or a Rover V8

>>15167178
You mean when it was the Buick 215.
>>
>>15167123
You don't know what you're fucking talking about. Not saying they look the same, you melon. The P6 is the best handling saloon car of its era, it has inboard rear disc brakes, de Dion tube rear suspension and a host of other good design and good parts. The SD1 is a piece of shit, barely even in the same class as a P6 with a live rear axle and drum brakes.
