Thanks for the reply Duke, nice fleet you have there! thumbup Yes, it's quite a fun motor to thrash about in, fingers crossed it passes the MOT with no fuss. I'm planning to book it in this week.

Free is good smile

I really like these cars. I've never had one, but many moons ago I worked for British Car Rental who were owned by Rover so the fleet was all Rover cars.

I cut my teeth thrashing the Rover 200/400 series cars and the 220 (and 420) were always a treat whenever we got one at the branch. The turbo ones must be mental.

Have fun!

Nice 220 they seem to be getting fairly rare, never forget my work experience(at the local Rover Dealers) trip out in a 216 GTi and ever since I've always liked them. That for free is great thumbup

The turbo's are great, you're right smile

I'm still tempted to pick up a cheap 220 to sit alongside the Coupe wobble
