1994 Rover - Austin Montego LXi Clubman review from Spain
"British rubbish"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I really hate this car. I though it was a good car, but I had a huge deception with this piece of crap.
In 93000 km I have changed the exhaust six times.
The car is seven years old and is covered in rust.
Doors have never adjusted very well.
The injectors had to be cleaned at 14000 km.
Now has a coolant leak and I'm not going to repair it.
General comments?
Rover cars ARE RUBBISH. I won't buy another Rover in my life. Now I'm looking for a Passat TDI or a SAAB 9-3. I don't which one is better in reliability terms. If anyone could help me I would be happy.
