He's also selling a Rover sedan? What model?

I've always loved the V8 P5 Coupe, but they are pretty rare on these shores.

just touched base with the owner, and he's confirmed that the vtec is 1970. he's readily available to talk cars, so if interested, please contact me off line for his phone #, etc... I almost had a headache listening to the detailed SPECS; definitely the ultimate driving machine.

What was the last year they built Clubman sedans?  Remember, this guy is looking for a pre 75 car to take into California.

my friend in washington dc is considering selling his, he is retiring and moving back overseas. i imported it from the uk for him, it was built by watsons racing, the first company in the uk doing vtec conversions. 1.8 vtec, dta management system, beam rear axle, clubman front end. many other things i cannot remember, but a nice clean solid well sorted car. send me a pm and i will get back to you with his contact info.

I'm looking for a well sorted out vtec mini. I'd prefer a ca registered mini but I'm open to any pre 75 minis. If you have one for sale or know of one please let me know. Thanks.
