Congratulations on the car,the colour scheme really suits it too.
I hope you can sort out the insurance issue,try Lancaster I've heard they are better than most for younger drivers.

Nice car. I much prefer the saloon body as, to me, it looks better balanced.

A friend once owned the Lord Mayor of Solihull's official PB5 and it was a one off as it still had the glass anti-draught devices fitted to the windows, carried over from the 3 litre P5.

I understand Fraser had to move this on, due to the insurance situation. Sad

I'm afraid that it was sold on because insurance was devastating at the time, and I was trying to save a bit of cash to return to university. I have, however, just purchased another V8-engined Rover. Cool
