The Classic P5 Rover that drove prime minister, Margaret Thatcher to meet the Queen is expected to fetch £45,000. With a large history file and unquestionable provenance, the venerable Rover P5 is an attractive saloon in its own right.
The car that whisked new prime minister Margaret Thatcher to Buckingham Palace to meet the Queen is set to make up to £45,000 at auction.When introduced in 1958, the Rover P5 was the company’s undoubtedly flagship — and a return to the upper echelons of the executive car market for its maker. Being big, sturdy and incredibly well-made, the Ebony Black saloon became the favoured transport of British prime ministers and royalty.
After retiring from its place on the political stage, the Rover moved into private ownership in 1980 with a recorded mileage at the time of circa 76,000m with approximately 17,000 miles recorded since then. It remains in exceptional condition throughout to this very day.The structure of the car was designed as a single unit with all inner panels such as the floor, front and rear bulkhead and door post stressed.
