Wind Back Time
Rover P5B 1973
Specifications
Description
Whats interesting is that Rover publicly apologised when it revealed the P5 3500B – they apologised to those who though that the Rover P5 3ltr was the ultimate in smoothness¦they apologised because they now had to tell people to try their new 3500 ltr automatic, which set new standards.
It was all put down to the new V8 engine, which gave more power that flowed with astonishing smoothness. And yet, this engine was lighter than its predecessor. It was unrivaled at the time because of its aluminium construction.
Because it was lighter, they were able to improve its weight distribution, which gave safer road holding and better cornering power.
Rover improved lighting with built in fog lamps and redesigned the interior to give more comfort and convenience.
