1973 Rover P5B Coupe, Automatic, Reg. No. MUL 745L, finished in Bordeaux Red with Buckskin interior, Tax and MOT exempt, purchased by the late owner from Mann Egerton in Colchester in February 1976...

1973 Rover P5B Coupe, Automatic, Reg. No. MUL 745L, one owner since 1976 and low mileage. Attractively finished in Bordeaux Red with Buckskin interior, Tax and MOT exempt. This splendid original example was purchased by the late owner from Mann Egerton in Colchester in February 1976 for £1600 with the car remaining in his possession until his death this year aged in his 90s. It is supplied with V5 and large history file including 1976 purchase receipt and all MOT certificates from 1976 to 2018 confirming the recorded mileage at approx 41,540 miles. According to the service book a new speedometer was fitted at 21,972 miles in 1975 giving a total mileage of approx 63,500 miles. The car is an attractive and very useable example, which will probably require some recommissioning before regular use. Sold by Direction of Executors. (Subject to 12% buyers premium inclusive of VAT)

Sold for £13,000
