JohnK Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Bought this last month and been using it as my daily, however new job and recently acquired Honda Civic diesel mean that unfortunately it is surplus to requirements. 1992 'J' Rover 214SiMOT: April 201653,000 miles I bought it from Mr_Bo11ox who had done a few bits to it to get it on the road (its had a replacement gearbox, new clutch and a couple of other bits I seem to remember).The engine is a peach, no OMGHGF issues or anything like that, drives really well. Quite sprightly for a little 1.4 and it handles so well. Exterior is in really good condition, theres a small scrape on the O/S/F arch (hardly noticable) and thats about it. No rot on the bodywork and underneath it is absolutely solid - a lot cleaner than most 23yr old cars. Interior is also in really clean condition, drivers door arm-rest has some damage but otherwise really clean and tidy. I've put a cheap CD player in that I had lying around as well. Price wise I want £550 as that is what I paid for it. Only pic to hand at the moment, will get some more tomorrow. Ideally I need to keep hold of it until Friday as that's the earliest I can pick the Civic up from my sisters in Blackpool, but I'm not short of cars so if it needs to go in the meantime that is fine.

Tam Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 I know it is exactly what I'm looking for but being up here in the hills everything is so far away! Watching it on ebay also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnK Posted July 4, 2015 Author Share Posted July 4, 2015 Probably my distinct lack of pictures hasn't helped - haven't had chance to get any yet and it needs a wash now. There's some pics in the original advert here - http://autoshite.com/topic/20392-rover-214-si-3-dr-for-sell-full-mot-%C2%A3550/?fromsearch=1 It's a great little car. I can help with delivery as well if anybody is interested. Tam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnK Posted July 7, 2015 Author Share Posted July 7, 2015 Back up for this. I will get my fingers out my backside and get some fresh photos over the next couple of days. I'm picking the Civic up tomorrow so this will be parked up tonight once I'm home and be ready to go! stillOrange 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purplebargeken Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I can visualise this in purple, Vulgalour purple, with lots of purple in it. Also with Vulgalour driving it with hat on. Perfect fusion of Vulgalour and Roverness. dugong 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnK Posted July 8, 2015 Author Share Posted July 8, 2015 Can stick Honda Concerto badges in place of Rover and 214Si if it helps ?! Gonna chuck a bucket of water over this tomorrow in the vain hope somebody decides they might want to buy it. Be a shame for it to just sit around.
