Re: P2 Differential noise

On the subject of differentials, my 1947 16 came with a spare diff. I'm hoping it's the recommended higher ratio type. Should there be any markings on the casing to indicate the ratio? It would be a bit annoying if I replaced the existing diff with one of the same ratio.

Re: Tracing the history of my P2

Thanks for your input Andrew and Chris. Regarding the Revd. J.J. Jenkyns relationship with the RSR, I've got a letter to him from a Club official, at some point in the '50s, asking him to advise a prospective purchaser of a P2 in his area. When I get time, I'll find the letter and see what it says, ...

Re: Tracing the history of my P2

I know most of the history of my P2 16 (Petunia) from 1962 onwards, but not prior to that point. Petunia carries the registration DBX902, a Carmarthenshire number, and was manufacture...

Thanks for that Chris. I'll give it some thought. Your list does demonstrate a pretty good coverage of the country.

Re: 2015 RSR National Rally

Fair comment 47P2. It was more the case that it was so close to the 2013 site.

2015 RSR National Rally

I don't like to moan, but I'm a bit disappointed by the location of next year's rally. I am aware that the majority of RSR members live in the Midlands and North, and that as a Southerner in Dorset I'm likely to have to travel a few miles to the National Rally. I bought my Rover 16 almost three year...

Re: New Member - Suffolk P3 & P4

Welcome classicclara. I'm not much help to you I'm afraid, I live in Dorset, and I have a P2. There is a lot of in depth knowledge in the club, hope you find out what you need and enjoy the club, Alan
