Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This Rover P4, a three-owner car with confirmed mileage of 41,944, presents as remarkably original and well-maintained. While featuring a battery conversion and discreet modern stereo, it retains its original toolkit and is reported to be in good running order, making it an appealing classic.
Condition
7
Based on the description, the car is remarkably original and carries its age well. It has been driven to the saleroom, suggesting it's in running condition. The mileage is confirmed by MOTs, and it has been sparingly used by the last two owners. While it has a battery conversion and a modern stereo hidden in the glove box, it retains the original under dash toolkit. This suggests a well-maintained vehicle with some modifications but overall good condition.

Description
Sold with the V5C, 4 x keys, large history folder.
The Rover P4 series was a group of mid sized luxury cars produced from 1949 until 1964.
They were designed by Gordon Bashford.
Their P4 designation is the factory terminology for this group of cars and was not in day-to-day use by ordinary owners who would have used the appropriate consumer designations for their models such as Rover 90 or Rover 100.
Production began in 1949 with the 6-cylinder 2.1-litre Rover 75.
Four years later a 2-litre 4-cylinder Rover 60 was brought to the market to fit below the 75 and a 2.6-litre 6-cylinder Rover 90 to top the three car range.
The P4 series was supplemented in September 1958 by a new 3-litre P5 but stayed in production until 1964 and their replacement by the Rover 2000.
The new four-cylinder 80, announced on 24 October 1959 was a new Land Rover derived straight 4 overhead-valve engine entirely different from the units used in all the other models.
With 80 hp available, the car could top...
