Hello, in addition to my Wolseley 14/56 from 1936 I like to buy a Rover P4 to tow my pre-war caravan even on longer distances and on the highway. Yesterday I made a testdrive with a 1956 P4 90- the car was in quite good order and drove fantastic, but I was confused that from 33mls/h on the engine wa...

I got a draft of the P3-frame; you are right, the frame ends at the front of the rear springs, so the rear bumper is fixed to the body.

I suspect the german MOT won't agree with fixing a towbar to the body, so this might be a knockout criterion for my project- What a pity!

Hi Mike,

I am searching for a P2 (14 or bigger) in good and overhauled or great original condition; the mechanics should be rebuilt.

Hello, as the engine of my Rover 14 from 1935 starts to starve suddenly (much white dust in the crankcase, poor oil-pressure), I am searching for a good running or even rebuilt engine as an easy alternative (I hope so) to a rebuilt of my engine. So if someone can offer a good engine, please let me k...
