Re: Pulling down front end

Thanks for the reply sorry for the delay in responding. I’m not on Facebook but it seems more and more that I need to be. Since my last post on this forum have joined the P4 DG. There doesn’t seem to be a way to communicate with members. As you say Facebook may be an option so will look into it. Tha...

Re: Pulling down front end

Thanks I will check that forum out. All the best with your car. I like all the old Rovers especially the Rover 12 tourers. You see them in English movies and tv series all the time. Don’t see many here in Australia though.

Re: Pulling down front end

Hi I’m new to this forum But have been on many other forums for the various cars I have owned over the years. It’s not a criticism but just an observation that the rate of reply compared to views is incredibly low..I’ve never seen that before. It’s not even 1 reply for every 100 views. Any ideas abo...

Hi all First time on a Rover forum but been on a few others in the past. Found them to be very helpful and a great resource. Inherited a 1961 100 From my grandfather in the 80’s which I sold and incredibly bought the car back just two years ago. I stumble across the ad and had it shipped across Aust...
