The Story

Why the P5 matters

The P5 was Rover's large saloon, sold from 1958 to 1973 as the 3 Litre and later the 3½ Litre. It was used as an official car by several British prime ministers. In 1967 the P5B arrived with the 3.5-litre V8, which Rover took from Buick, and it was sold as a saloon and a coupé until 1973.
