twingoman ◊ 2009-09-04 14:44	According to Wikipedia, the last P6 came off the production line on 19th March 1977, and it was registered in August 1977. -- Last edit: 2009-09-04 14:44:15
vilero ◊ 2009-09-04 14:45	According DVLA it's a 2200, but the last models in the site [P6] and [P6B] are from 1975. In 1976 it seems was the 1st year for the 'new' [SD1] and DVLA's year of manufacture says 1977. That is my doubt.
vilero ◊ 2009-09-04 14:49	So this one would be one of the latest 2200 SC or 2200 TC [P6]?
Sunbar ◊ 2009-09-04 16:59	Listed as Rover 2200TC by HPI check. According to Austin-Rover On Line... the end for the P6 came on the 19th March 1977, when both the last 2200 and 3500S were produced. Rover launched the 6-cylinder 2300 and 2600 SD1 models in late 1977, finally laying to rest the P6. The Rover 3500 V8 SD1 was released mid-1976. So registering a P6 2200TC on 23 03 1977 is quite possible. -- Last edit: 2009-09-04 17:07:01
