1996 Rover - Austin 400 420 SLi Hatchback review from UK and Ireland
"Just what I wanted, but too thirsty"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing whatsoever; it is a brilliant car but very thirsty and with petrol prices rising it is not economical, so I would like to switch to the diesel equivalent. Rover make excellent cars! (if you are lucky...)
