this is richard hedger on ebay

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=380223938101

whereabouts in the country are you?

I'm in Maldon Essex mate i saw this one on ebay but was worried by the sheer amount of work(welding) i did put an offer in but had to allow for £120 delivery and the amount of work to be carried out and it was rejected, just not willing to go any higher than my bid as its my first one so we will see cheers Chris

The car above is no longer available , but spoke to Phil and saw his latest ebay addition which is a green P4 100 it is exactly what i wanted , however i was supposed to sell my Pajero today for £2450 and give Phil £1400 for the P4 but my car sale fell through so i have missed out how frustrating and it looks like it has sold on ebay now .
This searching for a classic thing is well frustrating.
Any other P4 finds would be much appreciated
Cheers Chris

I can recommend Richard Hedger - he always has some restoration projcets in of all types of P4's and gets new one and the so called barn finds quite regularly.

Went there only at Easter and had quite a few - these will be broken if no takers too

Got my P4 100 at last !!! now the restoration starts!!
It is a runner with full MOT, TAX, body is sound, cost me £1500, £85 insurance !! why havent i bought one sooner, here's looking forward to this summer cheers Chris

[michael1703]

nice one, welcome to p4 ownership

dont restore it straight away, drive it and enjoy it for the spring/summer first

I had just heard of a P4 available too, its a barn find in Thetford, my girlfriend knew of it through work, i asked her to get some more info, i have a customer that wants me to aquire and restore a p4 for him but specifically wants a 60, if it was anything other than a 60 i could have put you on to the owner

I drive a sage green 1958 p4 '60' , sometimes seen in maldon actually as my sister lives in tennyson road

Well done Chris!
An excellent choice, the Rover is just what you need and it is ready to cruise.
