Rover P5 Club
1 Ferngrove Close,
Fetcham,

Leatherhead
KT22 9EQ.

Is it a saloon, a coupe, a 3 litre or V8?

Coupe
Rectangular front quarter light
Roof side panel with simplified Long ship badge
Rear door quarter light
Separate front door locks below handles

Saloon
Painted side window surrounds  
Triangular front quarter light  
No rear quarter light   
Front door locks in the handles

3.5 litre V8 (P5B) coupe

3 litre straight six (P5) saloon

3 litre straight six  (P5) coupe

3.5 litre V8 (P5B) saloon

VISUAL DIFFERENCES

The easiest way to differentiate between the models (other than the engine) would be the wheels, which on all P5B’s are Rostyles.  

Other points to note all of which can be found on the 3.5 litre V8 P5B and not the P5.

• side indicators,
• no hole in the front grille for the starting handle
• rubber strips to the over-riders
• recessed fog lamps added to the front wings

The P5 3 litre had automatic and manual gearboxes, some with overdrive. The P5B V8 only came with a three speed Borg Warner
Type 35 automatic gearbox.
