Default An introduction from the Midlands RS

My name is Andy Phillips from Solihull, West Midlands and I've joined up with Jake to split the Midlands region between us. I joined the club last year, following previous involvement as an Events Secretary for the Rover P4 Drivers Guild and Regional Rep for the Jaguar E-Type club. I currently own an 04 Rover 75 Connossieur SE 1.8 and an 06 Rover 75 Connossieur SE V8, I've owned a number of Rover cars including 3 P4's two of which I restored and an E-Type Jaguar.

I've been involved in cars from an early age, my first car was a Mark 3 Cortina which was given to me by my father and I then went into Stock Car Racing at the age of 14, but I drive cars a little differently these days!

I've since owned various models of cars, but I have always had a favourite, the Rover P4 and my first was given to me by my uncle which was in a sorry state. I started the restoration project but my uncle passed away before completion. I recently sold my most current P4 which was exhibited at the NEC Classic Car Show this year.

If I can be of any assistance please don't hesitate to PM me and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.

Welcome aboard Andy, and it was good to meet you at the NEC

What colour is your V8?
