Rover 3500 1968

A paragon of British automotive elegance and technical refinement, the Rover 3500 has a special place in the world of classic cars. This particular 1968 example was part of a private collection of British classics, carefully maintained in a personally equipped workshop with two bridges on the outskirts of The Hague. In addition to the Rover, the collection included prominent models such as a Triumph TR7, a Triumph Stag, and a Jaguar XJ 6. The cars were lovingly cherished until the collection became available for sale due to the death of the owner. This Rover was personally imported from England in 2004, with the full English history of the car, including all previous owners and maintenance records, carefully documented. The car has a likely original mileage of 83,808 on the odometer, highlighting its low usage and good maintenance. In 2017, the Rover underwent a significant engine overhaul worth €6,000, ensuring its mechanical reliability. In addition, the car has had an RX treatment to protect the bodywork, and the exhaust is made entirely of stainless steel, giving her a durable character. The interior flaunts cream-colored leather that exudes elegance and comfort, although the exact term for the roof is currently unknown and needs further specification. After two years of downtime, the Rover was recently restarted. This indicates the need for some attention, especially regarding the brakes, which require maintenance or replacement to return the car to optimal condition. This Rover 3500 is not only a wonderful example of classic British automobile design, but also represents an era when luxury and performance went hand in hand. With its rich history and meticulous maintenance, this car is an excellent choice for the classic car enthusiast and a valuable addition to any collection. To get a good idea of the lot, we recommend coming to the viewing day.
