1946 ROVER 10 P2

1389cc, manual. According to letters between its previous keepers, this Rover 10 P2 saloon was originally used by a director of the Rover Company and remained in constant use up to 1968. The blue paintwork is complemented by a matching blue interior, with blue seats and door cards.

The history file includes a good collection of maintenance invoices, some indicating a restoration around 2011-12. The V5C records 2 keepers before the vendor took ownership in June 2024. It also records the colour as green, so the DVLA will need to be updated. The car is supplied with spare keys, a copy of a workshop manual, and an original continuation logbook.

The car does run and drive, but the vendor advises that the headlights need re-wiring and the clutch would benefit from adjustment. Some attention will also need to be given to the driver's window mechanism. The odometer shows 11,957 miles. 

First registration was in July 1946, after production had moved from Coventry to Solihull. The registration number is non-transferable.
