1998 Rover - Austin 200 214i LX review from UK and Ireland
"Fun and enjoyable car to own"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing serious has gone wrong with this car, it's an all round reliable and good car to own.
General comments?
The cars interior could be changed for the better, I have found that the radio is fiddly to operate, takes some getting used to!
Being in my car daily, I have found the seats to be great, no problems there, it's an enjoyable and responsive car to drive.
However it's definitely not a car for the learner driver due to its precise handling and great engine.
