Rover P4 (60/75/80/90/95/100/105/110) 1964
General description :
Trade-in car. A 1964 Rover P4 110 finished in two-tone blue exterior with matching interior. How delightfully British! This is a car that only needs a few small details attending to. The bodywork is in a good state with only minor blemishes. The paint and brightwork’s condition is fair. We think a re-spray would bring her back to her former glory. If you are looking for an everyday car then a re-spray is not essential. The paintwork coverage is quite good but no longer completely sound. The original interior trim is still neat. The blue leather is in good condition and still supple. Over the years the trim has acquired a lovely patina. Parts of the carpet have faded, but generally they are in good order. The wooden window frames have been replaced and add majorly to the car’s interior charm. The 2.7 straight-six petrol engine is coupled to a 4-speed, overdrive manual box. The engine runs well and the gearbox changes are supple and precise. The original chassis is as sound as a rock. In short a sound base to just enjoy having or with a few cosmetic touches a top quality car. THIS VEHICLE IS IN OUR STORAGE, VIEWING BY APPOINTMENT ONLY.
