Description

This beautiful 1970 Rover P5B Coupé comes directly from the first owner's collection and has always been owned by the same family, father to son, since purchase. The original color scheme of “Burnt Grey over Silver Birch” makes the model even more special, with the paint remaining largely original and in beautiful condition. The special patina of the original leather interior enhances the charm and authentic look of this classic model.

Rare factory options and configuration

In addition to its impressive condition and retained original details, this Rover P5B is unique because of its rare factory options. For example, it has air conditioning and is left-hand drive, which is exceptional for a British classic of the era. This configuration, combined with the original decals and well-preserved chrome details, makes this Rover a very unique and sought-after appearance.

Powerful driving experience with comfort and sportiness

Under the hood lies the legendary 3.5-liter V8 engine that produces 161 horsepower. This makes the P5B a smooth and powerful car that accelerates effortlessly and drives wonderfully comfortable thanks to the Borg Warner automatic transmission. The combination of the V8 and the automatic transmission makes for a balanced driving experience that focuses on both sportiness and comfort. The original hood insulation and other mechanical parts are still in beautiful condition, attesting to the meticulous maintenance over the years.

Timeless elegance and rich documentation

With its classic lines and stunning details, this Rover offers a time capsule experience. The original dashboard, bright gauges and all functioning controls enhance the nostalgic charm. In addition, the car comes with the original manuals, further emphasizing its historic character and value as a collector's item.
