Looks good. Fancy respraying mine? Might be better off posting this in the Classic forum where there's more life for older vehicles.

Just saw this baby - swooned - the P6 3500S is where I got my love of V8's from
When I were a lad there was a police sergeant who lived a few doors along from us called Mr Bernie
Well he was a serious petrolhead like my old man - my dad liked twin cam straight sixes(Jags, to be precise) but Mr Bernie always had a V8 - before the Rover he had a P5B coupe and before that a Daimler 250 V8.
Anyway this car was stunning - in Mexico Brown with a Dark Vynil roof and Tobacco leather. 3-spoke steering wheel.Of course it was a Manual, with cast magnesium wheels with the Rover Logo in a greyish colour - never seen them on any other 3500 but boy were they lovely.
Mr Bernie was a serious tuner and he had a big exhaust that used to make our wooden sash windows vibrate as he rumbled past - HRB888N was the reg - one of the last ones I believe.
I always smile when I see one and if I had a bigger garage I would buy one to cherish
Nice paint job, by the way.

Nice job Damian saw your car at Bristol car show and it looks just as good in real life, well done it looks great. Couple of questions, how did you get the rear lamp lenses all red? I want to get shot of my wing mirrors and have an overtaking mirror like yours, how do you get on with it? Thanks Steve
