P3 75 sports saloon on TV

Post by Guy Worrall » Sun Mar 22, 2009 11:41 am

I was lucky enought to have my car requested for filming to appear in the next series of Britains Greatest Machines with Chris Barrie at the Landrover plant at Solihull what a fabulous day we had the first visit to the factory where she was built I was even shown the bays were they were assembled this was a wonderfull fealing that we can build great cars and this visit proved it the episode is due out in late June on National Geographica channel look for the episode on the 1950 and hopefully you will see the car in all her glory and being driven by Chris the episode is about the Landrover but they also wanted an example of the cars built at the same time

Hello Guy,

Congrats on the P3 filming!!!!!Try and get a copy of the video I would love to see it.
I would enjoy hearing more about the Tourer your are considering. Is it running? do you have any pictures?

Are you planning on going to the National I am considering coming over for it.

Give my best to Jill

Dirk

Watched this programme last Thursday,
I thought it was excellent throughout made much more interesting by the appearance of the P3.

Well done Guy for your time and effort involved. Did anyone get a digital copy so we can use a few of the frames on the web site?

By the way I am always interested in Rover related stories in any form that others would be interested in reading contact me at
