    Need some help to look at a car. InVictoria.

    Just wondering if anyone lives in the Warndoo area of Vic who could take a look at a vehicle for me . It is not a Land Rover but a Rover P6B. I just need some one to give me there opinion on the condition of the paint , trim & roof lining. Before I fly down to have a look . I have been caught before being told the paint & trim was good & needed nothing spending on it then finding there wern't 2 panels the same shade of green & trim was held in with Selastic & holes in roof lining repaired with the same product. Thanked him for waisting my time & drove 6 hr's home againwith an empty car trailer.
    The vehicle I am looking at the seller tells mdd is sold subject to an inspection this week end but just trying to line something up in case the sale falls through.
    Sorry if I have posted it in the wrong place, was not sure were to post it.
    Thanks Wayne.

    Yes that's the place the seller had incorrect spelling in his add.
    Anyway thanks everyone the add now comes up as being sold so don't need assistance now.
    The hunt goese on for a good Rover P6B or Rover 3500SE SD1 , the hard part is finding one that the wife likes the colour.
    The P6B has to be British Racing Green with A/C or the SD1 has to be Oporto Red dose make it hard. Most of the vehicles i've seen are in Victoria , makes it hard when we are in Brisbane.

    Have you tried the Rover Car Club of Australia?

    Not sure if this one is still for sale or if it’s the one you were looking into.

    Spotted in Warrnambool back in May.

    That is the one I was looking at , the owner tells me it is sold but buyer has not seen it yet & is going to look at it on Saturday. So won't know until Sunday if sold for sure or not. So have you seen this vehicle in the flesh , is as good as it looks in the photo's,would it be worth flying down to have a look at it. They are selling it without RWC so was hoping it is good enough to drive back to Brisbane.

    No I haven’t seen it in the flesh unfortunately. A friend spotted it and sent me the pictures as I have a 1968 P5B. If the sale doesn’t go through I could pop up and have a look for you. I’m about 50km south of Woorndoo.

    Thanks I will be in touch . Just wondering if you know John Dean in Tasmania I see you posted about his stolen RR 2 door
    Apart from my 1950 S1 I have owned two other 59 S1's , 2x 49 P3 & a 3500SE Oporto red which I sold a few years ago wish I had not. I am a mechanic by trade always worked for BMC, Leyland , JRA Deales before leaving the trade. Should know better buying these British cars.
