The owner then passed away and the vehicle was left in his will. The new owner inherited the car but found it too big for him and he exchanged it for a sports car for his wife. The Rover P5 was unveiled at the 1958 Earl's Court Motor Show and boasted all new monocoque construction, although it retained a subframe for the steering, engine and suspension. It was a ground breaking moment in the company's history, but despite the new-fangled design, it was still very much a Rover at heart: over-engineered and based on traditional values and styling. Designed by David Bache the P5 was a favourite of the elite. Despite the traditional looks, it was the P5 that actually began the process of casting off Rover's image as a builder of staid, stuffy and strait-laced automobiles – shaking off its 'Auntie' tag once and for all. Slotted under the bonnet of the P5B(the B suffix stands for Buick), the engine was so successfu and in fact the demand was so high that Land Rover had to wait until 1979 to get a slice of the V8 action. Beloved of Prime Ministers and Monarchs, the Rover P5 offers affordable style without high running costs. If you crave a luxurious classic but worry about high purchase prices and extravagant running costs, then you could do a lot worse that track down a Rover P5B. Packed to the brim with style and luxury
