CHRIS1980 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 For sale we have my uncles Rover 820i. Silver with grey interior. It has the o series 8 valve engine. It runs sweet and was wax oiled every few years. He's had to give up driving it because he needs an auto so has a got himself a Rover 25 auto which he loves. He's had this car for 23 years and it belonged to his boss before that from new. It's on an f plate and looks fantastic. The MOT has lapsed but it wouldn't take much for another.. I would have it but it not my cup of tea. The price is none negotiable,but it's worth it. Any interest pm me. oldcars, Mr_Bo11ox, trigger and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Bo11ox Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Wow that's a rare one. Is it a hatch?? And whereabouts is it?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadworkUK Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 If that's an 8 valve then it's ultra rare indeed and is badged "820" with no E, I, O, A or U. Howmanyleft says there are minus 2435 of them on the road. BorniteIdentity 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Bo11ox Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Yes it is. I'm not sure you can get an 8v injected 820? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBiscuits Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Yes it is. I'm not sure you can get an 8v injected 820?I think you're right. My dad had an 820e (auto!). That was one step up from the carb model, same poxy 14inch wheels and miser spec but single point injection and 16v Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadworkUK Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 If it's 8v it's an "electronic" carburettor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pillock Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 If it's 8v it's an "electronic" carburettor. Isn't that the sort of madness pre-VAG Skoda were playing around with when they had to lob catalysts on all their cars and realised nobody in the engineering department had learned how injection works? laser wheels 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
