Introduced in 1963, the 2000 was the sixth and last of the P-Series Rovers which began with the pre-WW2 Twelve.
Designed in-house it bristled with innovation and was quite rightly the winner of the first-ever European Car of the Year Award.
Braking was through discs all-round while fully-independent suspension comprised a novel de Dion arrangement at the rear and an equally unique rocker system operating horizontally-mounted coil springs at the front.
The intention behind the latter was to create an engine compartment wide enough to accommodate Rover's gas turbine unit, though this was never fitted to production vehicles.
Initially powered by a 1978 cc (hence the 2000 name) OHC in-line four-cylinder unit, the maximum output was 90bhp at 5,000rpm.
Some 322,302 P6 Rovers of varying engine capacity were produced before the model was superseded by the SD1 in 1977.
First registered on the 14th of April 1967, this at tractive Rover 2000, in SC guise, presents strikingly in its Red pain...
