1988 Rover - Austin Mini City E review from UK and Ireland
"Car of the century!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Kept stalling.
Lighting faults i.e they would go off in the dark when you were driving along.
Rust.
Did not have a fifth gear.
General comments?
Despite the faults this was the best car that I ever owned, it was such a laugh to drive and fuel economy was great, it was reliable and even got me home when it was not running properly. I WANT ANOTHER ONE!
