Although 16, 500 Rover 100’s were produced between 1959 - 1962, there are now thought to be less than 1000 currently registered on UK roads. They were fitted with 2. 6 litre straight six engines with overdrive on top gear and Girling disc brakes at the front.
This two-tone green example has the optional twin front seats as opposed to a bench seat. It is described as in good overall condition with some recent paint work having been completed. Despite being MOT exempt, the vendor has put it through an MOT recently for peace of mind. According to digital history it has seen less than 6000 miles since 2006. This 100 has had just six former keepers and comes with a current V5 as well as a large folder of history including parts receipts and old MOT’s. The front seats upholstery could do with some attention and some of the chrome work is seeing signs of wear, however the car drives and stops well.
Estimate: £3, 000 - 4, 000
