1970 Rover P6 2000TC Series 1 *** RARE *** For Sale

the car itself: It’s a 1970 Series 1 2000TC which has to be the most desirable of any of the 4 Cylinder models. Bodywork is finished in Rover White and has a few age related marks but nothing to detract from its appearance. Panel gaps are excellent and all panels show no signs of any repairs and are extremely straight with no ripples etc. Chrome and all other bright work are in very good condition. It also wears a period GB plate on the bootlid. This is original but very late (1970) series 1 not like many other i have seen on this year that shares a lot of series 2 bits.

Base unit has had some welding in the past but is very neat and to a standard way beyond MOT requirements, Please see pictures I have uploaded below. I am also fully willing to jack the car up for further inspection but anyone who goes underneath does so completely at their own risk.

Engine and gearbox are in excellent order, car starts readily from cold with no nasty rattles, knocks, smoke etc, when warm it idles comfortably and does not overheat, Being critical I would say the carburettors need balancing to make it even smoother.
Clutch bites nicely and all gears select as they should with no issues or noises.

Interior is in very good condition, the black leather seats show very little wear but I am being critical again there is a small amount of stitching that needs re doing and a very small spilt in the vinyl at the top of one back seat, this usually occurs due to sun damage.
Car has had a replacement set of carpets which are of very nice quality, there is an invoice for these included, the original are still underneath also. The original Radiomobile radio is still fitted and still works.

Car has full 12 months MOT with NO ADVISORIES and a very large history file with invoices etc going back at least 30 years totalling thousands, backing up the low mileage of 84k!! it really has led a very sheltered life and never moved more than 10 miles between its incredibly low 4 previous owners in the Bristol Area.

Please note that this car has been dry stored for a few years and is 48 year old!!!

Bad point every car got them just want to be completely honest, the fuel gauge has stopped working and just reads 1/ 4 all the timer and also the clock has stopped, don't forget that this car is 47 year old so just having these as bad points is impressive!!

Please don't hesitate to ask for more pictures or information.
