Rover 3500 auto tax exempt. - Page 2

Hi Phil, Looks exactly like my Almond 1972 P6 3500 Auto that I bought at one year old, p/x'd for a 79 3500 SDI in 1981 and regretted it almost right away. In my opinion Rover never got close to the the quality again until the 75 was launched. The P6 is a rare classic now with no mistake, your price is very good as well bearing in mind my P6 I got £995.00 for mine when I bought the SDI, wish you well in selling yours.

The 3500s is the manual designation.. 3500 is auto.
Maybe the fire started at the cat?
