You can read much more about the car, see of hundreds of detailed photos and videos of it, and ask the seller any questions on our website: we can't add links on this platform, so please search for "Trade Classics" on Google. **** VEHICLE SUMMARY **** Majestic, smooth, and powerful, the Rover P5B is considered the last of the true Rovers.The Rover P5B was a natural fit for state duties, striking a perfect balance between dignity and approachability. As the first Rover to feature David Bache's unitary bodywork, it paired a sleek, elegant silhouette with a traditionally luxurious cabin.By the mid1960s, the P5 had carved out a unique space for itself: it offered highsociety respectability without the overbearing arrogance of more 'bespoke' British rivals. However, the true turning point came with the introduction of the Buickderived 3.5litre V8. This lightweight aluminium engine transformed the P5 from a sedate saloon into a formidable continental cruiser.Because the V8 was actually lighter than the outgoing straightsix, it delivered a significant boost in power without the typical penalty at the fuel pump.A favourite amongst highranking ministers, royalty, and those who appreciated robust engineering, the P5B was offered in two body styles including the rare and distinctive fourdoor coup. However, the V8's reliability and excellent parts availability, on top of an active owners' club, means that the P5B doesn't need a minister's salary to maintain.First registered in November 1967, this P5B Coup is finished in 'Zircon Blue' over a beige leather interior. It comes to market after almost three years with our vendor and has a remarkably low 46,458 miles believed to be original. Remarkably, the car has had only four owners from new. Its provenance is backed by over £12,000 in invoices, a recent service, and an MOT valid until June 2026.Whilst the car is mechanically solid and wellmaintained, it does require some light cosmetic attention to bring it to its full potential. Most notably, this example is believed to be the seventh P5B Coup to leave the production line, earning it the distinction of being the oldest surviving Coup on the road today.The sale includes its Heritage Certificate, two car covers, the original owner's booklets, and two keys. **** VEHICLE DETAIL **** We've written a longer and more detailed description of this vehicle on our website, which will answer all of your burning questions.
