Manufacturer description

Our P6 has appeared in several authentic colour schemes of the period, including as used by the Police and this release comes in another popular two-tone livery of the day - pale blue grey with a black roof. Interior seating is light grey. Additional touches include silver masking to door handles, window surrounds, rear panel, bumpers and the front grille with a finely detailed Rover badge on the bonnet.

The P6 saloon car was produced between 1963 and 1977 at the motor company's Solihull factory and was the last of the 'P' designated Rover designs to be manufactured despite being considered very ahead of its time. Registered HUE 537L from 1972/73, our model represents a vehicle well into the marque's production period.

Catalogue listing

Oxford Diecast Rover P6 Lunar Grey – model number 76RP005.

The model depicts a Rover P6 saloon from the 1972/73 period, shown in a two‑tone livery of pale blue‑grey with a black roof. The interior is finished in light grey seating. Details such as silver masking on the door handles, window surrounds, rear panel, bumpers and the front grille, together with a finely reproduced Rover badge on the bonnet, are included.

The real P6 was produced at Rover’s Solihull plant from 1963 to 1977 and was the final vehicle to carry the ‘P’ designation. It was offered in a range of authentic colour schemes, including British Rail Blue used by the police; this version reflects a popular civilian livery of the era.
