A particularly appealing example of Rover's celebrated P5B Coupe, which has enjoyed remarkably long-term ownership and very limited mileage. Having been purchased by its present custodian nearly 30 years ago at 53,000 miles, it has covered fewer than 8,000 miles since.

The paintwork and interior are both entirely original — not concours-perfect, but presenting with an honest, unrestored character increasingly prized by collectors over a bare respray or retrim.

With its characterful 3.5-litre V8, elegant coupe lines and traditional Rover luxury, the P5B remains a wonderfully distinctive classic and a superb choice for relaxed touring. Accompanied by its factory manuals and a useful history file containing receipts dating back to 1988.
