Default Rover 216 SLI (Bubble shape) 10 months MOT, Tax, £365!!

1997 Rover 216SLI 16v Auto (Bubble shape!)

Dark metalic blue

99,457 Miles
MOT till October 2010
Tax till April 2010

Just had a full service which included.... Oil (Magnatec 10/40) oil filter, air filter, NGK plugs, HT leads, Coolant flush with a 50/50 refill and new thermostat.

15" standard Rover alloy wheels in excellent condition with all 4 tyres changed just over 2000 miles ago so loads of tread!

In very good condition, no rust anywhere! Passenger mirror has crack on casing so used black masking tape to cover the crack. Its fine like this although another mirror could be picked up from a scrappy for £10 or so if need be.

Creature comforts....

Air-con (re-gassed in July 09)
Electric windows
Electric sunroof
Electric mirrors
Remote central locking
Passenger & driver airbags
Standard Rover radio/cassette with 6 disc autochanger (volume/changer etc controls on steering wheel)
Alarm/immob
ABS

Drives very well & very comfy!

Being a Rover K series engine they can suffer from Head Gasket troubles. The last owner had it changed at 72,400 miles with the cambelt although no reciept was given with this as it was a cash deal. I took it to my mechanic and he did a compression test and said everything was perfect and she has a good strong engine, he even comented on the condition of the car.

Any questions please ask or PM me and I will give you my number.

Car is in Milton Keynes (5 mins from Stony Stratford) or nearest motorway is the M1 Junction 14 and im about 10 mins drive from there.

Will be getting pics up tomorrow as weather is terrible!!

Reason for sale...... Just bought an old diesel as have a 9 month contract at Stanstead Airport which is just over 180 mile round trip......a day!!

New price...... £365 cash if can be collected by the weekend

This is a great little car. Lots of creature comforts, runs and drives very well, and with 11 months and 4 months tax.

cheap little motor, had a couple of rovers in the past and found them to be more comfortable than expected and pretty reliable cars.

Sorry for late reply's and PM's and calls.

Michele wrote her Lexus off yesterday morning and has not been at all good, been in Hospital.

She will be needing this car to get about in so its not for sale. Once again sorry to all interested, especially Steve.

Could this thread be closed.

Many thanks.
