1991 Rover - Austin 400 416 GTi review from UK and Ireland
"A high performance pussy magnet"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear number plate light major failure 89000 miles.
Slight annoying vibration from gear shifter 90000 miles.
Front left drive shaft sheared off 92000 miles.
General comments?
The Rover 416 GTI has its own hyperdrive similar to that of the millennium falcon.
This is a bad ass motor not for the faint hearted.
