1988 Rover - Austin Montego L review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear springs, front windscreen does not fit correctly, gaskets split, dash rattles, seatbelts break, rear leaks water in heavy rain because of severe rust problems, sun-roof leaks because of easy blockages in drainage, brakes so bad you need a road as long a a runway to stop, buy a white one and within a year it has changed colour to brown not because of an expensive respray but because of the rust. Will not pull up a hill fully loaded in any other gear but 1st, expensive to run.
General comments?
Absolute bag of crap.
