"Renovated to a very good condition."

Description

Rolls Royce/Rover Meteor V12 engines were manufactured from 1941 to 1962. They are closely related to the Merlin engine, which was used in the famous British fighter aircraft, the Spitfire. The Meteor engine was primarily developed to be installed in British tanks during World War II. It was a highly reliable and powerful engine that played a significant role in the outcome of the war.

Rover took over production in 1944 and manufactured a total of 9,000 engines before production ceased.

This particular engine was refurbished and inspected when the British military suddenly needed 100 reliable tank engines during the Gulf War. However, it was never put back into service. The current owner had plans to install this engine in an old mahogany racing boat that was being restored but, as things turned out, those plans didn't materialize this time.

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
