Just been online got a quote of £190 for scrapping it! Seems a shame as car runs really well but looking more like the end is in sight for it

johno

It's a 5 door...just noticed it has good tyres all round and one set is all weather tyres with lots of tread so probably almost worth it for the tyres alone...if anyone wants to make a quick deal let me know

Hi all, thought i would see if anyone wanted to save this from its maker :) I have posted the ad on gumtree but thought i'd give you a shout on here, here's the ad: Here i have for sale a Rover 214SEi. This car was owned by a friends grandad since new so i know the mileage to be genuine. I bought th...

Bump...back on ebay

johno

Bump...still here so £390 gets it

johno

Thanks geo coupe for the positive comments..glad someone appreciates the car too :) not quite sure M4cwo what you mean as i wasn't aware of any bids being retracted but maybe i'm missing something :? Anyway i need to decide whether the car is going to go to a new home or if its going to go on the ba...

johno

Cool..thanks david never knew there was a thread about my car already :D Don't seem to have too much luck with ebay...sold for £400 but people don't seem to be able to read the listing so trying other avenues. Priced it at what i think is very fair considering the parts that are on it and with a bit...

Hi folks, it's a sad day but i have decided to sell my ti, due to not having the time to fix it. Anyway here is an ad i wrote for it (hope it reads ok), anyway feel free to email any questions, opinions, etc. It's on gumtree so you can see pictures: http://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-motorbikes/rove...

johno

give me a pm for a price with postage....cheers.

johno

i did exactly the same thing as that as the bleed valve was leaking on my ti...went on over a year ago and its still absolutely fine

johno

should have locked the ambulance door and just kept driving at a few miles per hour and pushed him out of the way..he would have had to move then...total scum bag

johno

First time i've seen the new impreza...and hopefully the last....

..prefer the look of the old model

johno

just a random thought but are the springs sitting properly in their cups at the rear? were all the bolts tigtened up with the car sitting on the ground..shouldn't make much difference tho....looks to me like there is maybe too much drop at the front?

johno

cheers for all the replies...def gonna get a new cts just to put my mind at rest....also noticed that the temperature gauge goes down slighlty when i drive too...ie- will go up in stop/start driving but drops a bit if cruising...would say thermostat but its just been changed for a renault 82 degree ...

johno

...after 13 months, around the back of the house, the ti is finally on the road after passing it's MOT...it's had a fair bit done to it from a full respray (as i hate stonechips), recondtioned wheels, new tyres and a complete strip down of the top end of the engine (as i bought it with suspected h/...

johno

My mates got a coupe turbo here in edinburgh..seen a few about here but they aren't a common sight for sure....suprised there's none about in Dunfermline tho...

johno

Seats look nice

johno

If you like the style, then definitely get them refurbished.....even if you got them done professionally its surely less than buying new wheels?

johno

Sorry to hear about your loss...tragic to say the least.

johno

The tensioner on mine looks shiny as well so that may not be your problem...was there any squeeling or belt noise which would likely have been apparent to smoke the belt...could be a sticking alternator or something like that if you think it's coming from that area...if i was you i would start it up...

johno

Recieved a headlamp which was broken in transit due to the carelessness of the royal mail. Gerraint offered to give me a lot of my money back even though it getting broken was not his fault....a top bloke who anyone should feel more than happy to deal with.

johno

95 bhp....if it has a cat then 91 bhp as standard....0-60 is about 10.5 seconds.....

johno

Looks like a lot of work has gone into the interior but the question is 'why do it'....you got to feel sorry for the guy

johno

My mates dad had an m reg one and that was the 200bhp one....best to check though...as far as i knew all the ones with the sport alloys are 200bhp

johno

....thats a hell of a lot of damage.....reminds me of when i went from fifth to second (instead of fourth) when i was learning to drive ....glad that never happened!! Looks like where the liner has no surrounding support is where weaknesses are under extreme circumstances....any idea what rpm was u...

johno

Good question...wish i knew the answer...as i need things such as clips,etc for mine...so getting a bit worried about getting non-consumable items...

johno

Well done!! Thats really good going for a k-series...that metro must shift!

johno

Having experienced both i personally prefer the ti. I like the vits...a lot of car for the money, lots of room, fairly imposing and good equipment level with the nice recaro seats...however i'm not so keen on the dash in the 800 which although a little honda-plastique in the 600 looks a bit old and ...

johno

'floats about at high speed'...that doesn't sound too good!!

or is it a case of what speed are we talking about here

johno

'97 ti....

Heard it was a real q-car...think it also looks the most modern out of the 'older' rovers...like the shape, interior, performance, etc...only downside is fuel economy but even that could be worse...

johno

I really like those wheels but definetely not in gold...

johno

Me too pleazzzz

johno

Just spotted this car (item no: 4524193623) on ebay....just wondering did all the vitesse sports not come with leather seats?
