Rover P6Manufactured between 1963 and 1977 at Solihull, West Midlands, England, the Rover P6 was a series of saloon cars named 2000, 2200 and 3500, for their engine displacement. The Rover P6 was first introduced as the Rover 2000. It was equipped with a semi-independent suspension at the rear, four wheel disc brakes and a fully-synchromesh transmission. With a single body design with non-stressed panels bolted to a unit frame, this car was voted as the European Car of the Year in 1964. In addition, it also won safety awards for all-round seat belts and a carefully designed 'safety' interior. The Rover P6 had a 2.0 L (1978 cc/120 in_) engine that produced output of 104 BHP. The Rover 2000 model and its TC version were replaced by the 2200SC and the 2200TC, produced from 1973 till the first half of 1977 and mounted with a 2.2 L (2205 cc/134 in_) engine. The last 2200 was a Left Hand Drive Export version, which was later transformed back to right hand drive by Tourist Trophy Garage, Farnham. Equipped with Buick's compact 3.5 L (3528 cc/215 in_) V8 engine, the Rover 3500 of the Rover P6 series was manufactured from 1968. Around 81,057 Rover 3500s were rolled off the assembly line between 1968 and 1977, of which the last version was the Rover 3500S which had 4-speed manual transmission.
