Hi guys and gals . I'm sorry I haven't been around for a while I must make an effort to get back on more often. Theres a lot being going on behind the scenes over the last couple of years since I clossed my p5 restorations business. I've left the north east and now live in sunny herefordshire. I'm contemplating restarting restoration when I have my new workshop built hopefully early next year I've already spoken to jrw who is ready as always to supply his magnificent repair panels .30 odd p5 rovers ive restored to the highest standard over the last 30 years and all due to the p5 guru himself. Really looking forward to getting going again. Inicially on a part time basis backed up by working full time down here. Restorations will still be 20 per hour it's never about the money it's all about keeping the most beautiful car on the planet rolling along. Enough for now. More updates to follow. Kev d

Welcome back. I hope the intervening times were not too emotionally challenging.

Hi Kev, wondered where you'd gone and it looks live we've ended up not a million miles apart.
I could do with my car getting a mild refresh after its resto 20 years ago at the hands of another P5 specialist so maybe drop me a PM and I'd love to meet up and chat about what needs doing to get the old boy (Benson) back to tip top condition.
I can do the mechanical but the bodywork is a black art as far as I'm concerned.
Look forward to hearing from you

Hi there. As soon as I get my new workshop up I'll be ready to go. My place has lots of small buildings currently they all need knocking dow n to make way for a steel framed building
