Current V5 present. Paperwork includes Volvo and Rover Haynes manuals, owners manual, lifetime car cassette, service book with 14 stamps and 14 hand written stamps, Volvo owners insurance booklet, driver guide, radio instructions, travellers guide, previous V5s, DVLA letter regarding change of engine size, MOT certificates, various extras installation instructions, invoices for parts and work, and service invoices.

The vendor has provided the following:

Only 1 previous owner (before me). I have owned and V8 engine installed at 3528cc

The car was driven 135 miles to the auction

I have owned and loved this car for 26 years. I fitted a Rover 3.5 V8 engine in 2018...Soley because I love the sound of a V8!

Featured in Practical Classics Magazine September 2021.

The car is a lazy cruiser that makes a nice noise.

This is a unique vehicle...one of one! The only car with a Rover V8 engine coupled to a AW71 automatic gearbox. I wanted to keep the original gearbox as it is fitted with an internal overdrive for relaxed cruising. The conversation was complex, but worth it.

The paint defects on the N/S/F wing and side doors is down to me making a pigs ear out of rectifying crazed lacquer. It was on my list to have these panels resprayed. The car deserves it.

These evergreen wardrobe-shifters are going up in value now.

Selling for health reasons.

I hope someone else will love this car as much as I have.
