1991 Rover - Austin 400 414 SLi review from UK and Ireland
"I would have another"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
General day to day running costs + a water pump. The gearbox was rebuilt a few weeks before I got it, this was the second time apparently.
A bit finnicky in the damp and the front windows are seized.
General comments?
Just keeps going, my dad had it before at 125,000. Burns no oil, 40+ mpg. Quite nippy as well, although a bit loud when pushed.
