Lot details Registration No: DOK768K Chassis No: 43610307B Mot Expiry: May 2018
- Bought used by E.G. Saul from Colliers (Birmingham) in Sep 1973 and two keepers since then
- Extensively restored by its last owner during 1997-1998 (4x new wings, respray, retrim etc)
- Former Rover P6 Owners' Club award winner and due to be freshly MOT'd for the sale
First registered as 'DOK 768K' in Birmingham on 21st June 1972, this particular example - chassis 43610307B - was purchased second hand some fifteen months later by E.G. Saul of Sutton Coldfield from Rover / Triumph dealer Colliers for £1,733.09 (original sales invoice on file). Kept by Mr Saul until 1997, the 2000 SC then passed to a fellow Rover P6 Owners Club member who treated it to an extensive cosmetic restoration and some mechanical fettling. As well as four new wings and a respray in its factory livery of Davos White, the four-door saloon benefited from engine bay detailing and a retrimmed interior not to mention fresh shock absorbers, sundry rewiring and a new exhaust etc. The recipient of various Rover P6 Owners' Club awards after its refurbishment, 'DOK 768K' is believed but not warranted to have covered some 102,000 miles from new. Starting readily upon inspection, this much loved 2000 SC is expected to possess a fresh MOT certificate by the time of sale (its current one runs until May 6th 2018). Accompanying paperwork includes the 1973 bill of sale, a handwritten restoration log and numerous old MOT certificates.
PLEASE NOTE: This lot's MOT certificate expires in May 2018. The vendor chose not to renew it because of the legislation coming into force which means that the car can be exempted from MOT testing going forward.
