Rover 2000, 2200 & 3500

Martyn Marrocco owns and runs a classic car restoration company in North Yorkshire, and has been in the motor trade for over 40 years. Martyn served a traditional apprenticeship in Nottinghamshire, learning the skills of the English wheel and most engineering processes. As well as working on vintage vehicles, modern cars were also catered for, including many which we now considered classics, such as Rover, Triumph and Jaguar. Martyn aquired a particular liking for the Rover P6, owning many over the years. In more recent times Martyn has become a well respected concours judge and has contributed to many magazine articles on restoration techniques.
