    Yet another masterclass from the man who can. Very informative and helpful glossy top coat and delicate detail work. It's a trans-olight transformation.👍

    Great work Martin, nice Rover blue. Top marks as usual. The “Trans o lite” always fascinated me really a 1960’s cutting edge tech.
    All the best my friend. Chris 👍🏼🇦🇺🏆🎺

    Hi mate great job as usual. Good tip there on how to take the wheels off, I've often struggled getting those little buggers off without bending the wire. Beautiful day here today 22 and sunny, I took the Mg for a spin to the beach pulled up under a pine tree and just chilled breathing in the nice fresh sea air.🤗 I got my Dremel out to do a job the other day, and it kept cutting on and off, so I held the cable so it worked but as soon as I touched the wire brush to the bit of metal I was trying to clean up. 💥"BANG" There was a big flash and the shed breaker blew. So I think the positive wire may have broke off and touched the earth or something.😫 Oh well at least I sill have my eyebrows.👁👁🤣🤣😂😂 Stay safe mate, catch you on the next one.👍🏻

    Great job Martin, back in the day always wanted one, but never did, I used to take my bosses Rover 200 to the car wash for him.

    Hi Martin another great job as always. You could gather all the trans-lights you have done and do one of them shorts with the lights showing. All the best from Ian b & the girls.

    Great job Martin. Looks really lush. Love your fine detail skills. One of my favourite P6 blues was a Metallic one they did called zircon blue. Like you, loved the P6. When I went looking for one, the 3500 V8 was all you could find. Peeps offloading them cos they were way too thirsty

    Great work on that one Martin, these are lovely models of great cars. Interesting to hear about yours. I remember the days of going to the scrapyard to get parts you needed. I dented the rear bumper on my first car, a Mk2 Ford Escort estate. I went to the scrapyard, got a replacement bumper and changed it outside the yard, 2 bolts, easy peasy. Left the old dented bumper there.
    These Rovers are really nice cars. We had one briefly when I was a kid, great memories of it.
    I'm currently looking to buy one myself. Hopefully, before too long, you will see a Rover P6 on my channel! Can't wait to get one, holding out for a really good one though.
    Keep up the great work, I really enjoy watching your restoration videos. 👍

    Shes lovely......very smart finish 👍🏻👌🏻👏🏻
    I did one of these a couple of months back (there was a ton of space round my trans-o-lite too) and while I was sitting there, scratching my bum waiting for the caustic to do its stuff, I remembered the old Met Police blue Rovers with the single blue lamp and Mickey Mouse ears. They were 3.5s and differed in detail from the 2000, but I thought, why not? It came out not too shabby......

    looks great, love the blue, it seems to glow a little. :)
    bummer about that window unit, but they seem brittle around that opening. I have seen gaps and fissures around it on many castings that have been played with.
