1991 Rover - Austin 400 414 SLi review from UK and Ireland
"Brilliant car with comfort and a dash of performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Pads went on the front and the calliper was sticking but that's it.
If anything this car's been over serviced!
General comments?
I love it to be honest, it's my first car and I couldn't ask for more. For a 10 year old car with a 1.4 engine it is superb and will take out many a new car with a bigger engine.
I've had it banging out 114mph top whack and a 0-60 of around 10 (Rover claim 11). The engine seems to adapt very well to how you want to drive it.
I'm only 18 and have driven about every car you can think of and still think this is a great car.
