Greetings,
I am a long-standing RSR Member residing in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales, Australia, having joined in the 1970's. My current Rover is a 1970 Three Thousand Five P6B, Davos White with Sandalwood Ambla "basket weave" upholstery, which has been in the family continuously since 1980. It has lived a charmed life, having only been a daily driver for the first two years of its life, although it was used as a shopping trolley by my mother for a while in the early 1980's. I am very fortunate that the car is still in excellent, original condition. The only alteration from original has been the fitting of Lumenition Electronic Ignition a couple of years ago. The electronic ignition has transformed the performance of the car and eliminated 'pinging' from the modern 98 Octane Unleaded fuel. These days, my Three Thousand Five normally gets a fortnightly mid-weekly outing with our local classic car club.
I previously owned a 1966 P6 2000SC from 1973 to 1987. I have also owned four Australian-built Mini's during the period 1969 to 1991.
Cheers, Rob
