Whatever happened to the P8's?

Post by Paul Gregory » Wed Jan 28, 2009 8:59 pm

Way back in 2004 when we had the 100 years of Rover cars meal at Gaydon as part of the National Adrian Mitchell and his son (Jack?) identified that there was the remains of a P8 sat outside the museum. Adrian Chandler and I went out with t'other Adrian's son to have a look. It was in quite a sorry state, but at least it still existed. Does anyone know what happened to it ... and are there any other P8's still in existance? I'm just curious as P8 was one of those models that should have been but never was. Are we only left with the pictures or could one materialise in a museum, or better still on the road?
Any ideas?
Thanks
Paul
