1995 Rover - Austin 200 214 SLi review from UK and Ireland
"Common as muck, but less reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
This car fell apart like one of those trick clowns cars.
Clutch went up in smoke.
Brakes fell apart and went on fire.
Gearbox... disappeared...
All the trim came off in a car wash.
Electric window on the driver's side snaps in place with a loud cracking noise.
Anti roll bars failed to do their job... the list goes on...
General comments?
Really a car that does not age very well... Good for a first car, but it soon falls apart.
