1991 Rover - Austin 400 416 GTi review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Wing mirrors liable to fall out.
Ignition chip failed.
Central locking intermittent failure.
General comments?
A good car for a sensible price, with performance far beyond that expected (Japanese Engine). However depreciation is quite high due to a poor image. Power steering is also light, making handling at speed unnerving.
