Here you go. Our wedding, with stepson & daughter plus my niece:



And my wife with her dad at her first wedding with my dad's Rover behind them (the only photo of the car there):



Oh, I've just been informed that there should be another one somewhere.

Thanks though she hasn't turned a wheel in three years, since our honeymoon in fact. Some TLC is needed, I have some later Hif6 carbs to be fitted, a leaky PAS system to sort & she really needs another respray. The last was getting on for twenty five years ago & has deteriorated somewhat now. A nice few coats of two-pack will sort that after a small amount of bodywork. Then a new front screen rubber which is a pig of a job.
Before that all happens though, I have three P6's & a Morris Oxford Countryman to recommision & sell. Possibly a P4 110 too.

We used my dad's 75 recently for my uncle's wedding.





My dad's old MK1 75 was also used as a wedding car about 5 years ago which I have pictures of somewhere.

Wow you've got a project on by the sounds of it.
When will you be selling them? There's a chap in Angelsey that buys classic Rovers and he's a hardcore enthusiast, he's got a Rover P6 which he's just finished restoring and two SD'1, anything Rover or MG he'll buy.

That is one nice looking MK2 75.
Liking the Red ribbons, goes well with the black, I thought they were viper stripes when I saw them.

Other Note those alloys are the cleanest I've seen.

Thanks hmm viper stripes, now there's an idea lol

The Serpents are actually due for their second refurb, especially on the insides. The serpents have ultra mini flakes in the lacquer like I have in the paint of my Apex's, but the flakes are a lot smaller and there's a lot less of them so they're harder to spot.

Be going later dad can I put Red stripes on the 75, it wasn't my idea its was Lord Rover's fault.

I was offered Serpents In the past and I wish bought them now they look really smart and goes well with the car, what sizes are they? would they over the 190 callipers, as I'll be upgrading mine and my stranded comets will have to be replaced with my ZT harpins.
