Lot number 2 Estimate £1,300 - £1,800 Description Rover P4 90 Registration XVS 189 Year 1954 Colour Cream Engine size 2,638 cc Chassis No. 55360166 Engine No. 55300371 Incredibly strong, smooth and comfortable, the Rover P4 is one of the best-made cars ever to be mass produced on these shores. In production from 1949 until 1964, it came in a bewildering number of versions but all were excellent cars, furnished to a very high standard with plenty of wood and leather, that were enormously popular with the middle class motorist. Introduced alongside the four-cylinder Rover P4 60 in 1953, the P4 90 had a more-powerful 2.6-litre six-cylinder engine that produced a respectable 90bhp and drove through a four-speed manual gearbox with synchromesh on the top three gears. The doors, boot and bonnet were in aluminium with the rest of the body in steel. The cars had a separate chassis with independent suspension by coil springs at the front and a live axle with half-elliptic leaf springs at the rear. Brakes were fully hydraulic drums all round. Testing the 90 in 1954, The Motor magazine recorded a top speed of 90mph and acceleration from 0-60mph in 18.9 seconds. When it was replaced by the P4 100 in 1959, 35,903 had been produced. First registered in November 1954, this particular car has been in the current ownership since 2003 but has been kept in dry storage during that time and has not been used on the road. Old MOT certificates show that it was in regular use from 2000 – 2003. However, it has just been recommissioned for sale and was recently granted a fresh MOT valid until March 2011. Cream with a dark red leather interior, it appears to be in good, sound condition throughout but would benefit from some cosmetic improvements here and there. Pleasingly it still retains a complete original tool kit. Wednesday, 24 March at 12 noon Auctioneer of classic cars and motorcycles |
