Warrior · Post by **Warrior** » Sat Mar 12, 2005 5:34 am

I have been a member since about January and have noticed alot of 600 owners are joining.

That got me thinking just how many of us are there!!!!!!

So if you owner a 600 would you please post a reply, just to see how many of us there are and why you all decided to buy the 600 or any other information you think would be useful.

Thanks

Warrior

'99 620Ti. The Ti is getting common on this forum now. Might have to get a 220 Gsi turbo instead.

I was just joking. I love the Q-car aspect of the Ti!

The amount of fun ive had driving slow like a coffin dodger then flooring it, and kicking a$$ makes me happy i bought the Ti :twisted:

Out of all the cars i have owned the Ti is still my favourite. It makes so many sense on so many levels its simply rude not to like it. The majority of people who knock it have more than likely never driven one. Yes, they dont look allthat. However they still retain a subtle image which cannot be called ugly.

S plate 621Ti

Really comfortable, civilised car.

Those who think it's Grandad's car learn a quick and usually painful lesson

on my second 620ti now. had a short stint with a 306 diesel, but couldn't cope with the lack of power.

i love the ti for its comfort and speed, great car. love surprising people with its power as well. and i actually love the styling, even if it does have a bit of a daft front end.

96 Plate Ti

johno · Post by **johno** » Sun Mar 13, 2005 1:07 am

'97 ti.... :twisted:

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...

Warrior · Post by **Warrior** » Sun Mar 13, 2005 2:18 am

When I started this thread I thought I'd get a range of 600 models.

Looks like I am the odd 1 out here!!!

The only SLI!!!!!!!!

(Should have bought a Ti) LOL

Warrior · Post by **Warrior** » Sun Mar 13, 2005 2:24 am

If anybody else has any other model of 600 it would be great to here from you has well!!!!!!!

(Its scary being in the middle of all these TURBO's) :bye:

Another Turbo i'm afraid. Wanted a coupe but Mrs didnt like idea of having to fold seats forward to get kiddies in. Thought about 420 Tubby but good ones can be hard to find. So then as i wanted Turbo power and Rover it had to be the 620TI. Prefer the shape of the 620 to the 800 or Vitty.

620Si, I am only 20 and a student so I dont have much money, after buying an Escort and the ferking cylinders ovaling I decided reliability was the key. So found one with 120k miles and for the same price I paid for the Escort.

You just get so much car for your money.

strange as i found at 145 it was ok ..not great but not scary..and that was on a private test track in my dreams in another universe far far away

Drew · Post by **Drew** » Mon Mar 14, 2005 8:30 am

yeah 100+ it feels like its being blown about in a strong wind...but there isnt any!
very off putting so i rarely use it. which is good for me, too many points already.

Drew

Raistlin · Post by **Raistlin** » Mon Mar 14, 2005 10:56 am

yeah 100+ it feels like its being blown about in a strong wind

Is that on standard suspension Drew?

Reason I ask is that my Ti seems quite solid at 100mph+ and I'm wondering why

Drew · Post by **Drew** » Mon Mar 14, 2005 11:05 am

yeah its std, prolly worn bushes and ball joints too.

brakes vibrate bad on heavy braking, got a slight squeal from them this w/end too

will have to spend some money on it soon.

i've got a Ti

got it because it makes a nice,quick family car and you can park them almost anywhere and they are not likely to be stolen!!

Quiche81 · Post by **Quiche81** » Mon Mar 14, 2005 8:19 pm

P Reg Ti ... Lightly tweaked, but practical to, especially with 3 nippers !

Warrior · Post by **Warrior** » Tue Mar 15, 2005 6:45 am

From a very lonely SLi!!!!!!!!!! LOL

When I get here up to over 100, she handles fine, have lowering springs and wider tyres ( Don't thimk that makes a difference though)

dukey · Post by **dukey** » Tue Mar 15, 2005 2:57 pm

reason i got a 620 turbo , bought 1 ages ago then it got written of grrrrr then i stripped full car and kept all bits ,then i got a 220 coupe to do a trubo conversion but then got a chance of another 620 turbo with dead engine ...so there you go ..and one more thing i have done long ditance in my 620's and they so comfortable and they very nippy ....but dont tell me girl friend i said that ,,she thinks i do about 55mph lololol..

Warrior · Post by **Warrior** » Thu Mar 17, 2005 8:13 pm

Just wondering if anybody here can help, have uprated my brakes to drilled and grooved disc's and green stuff pads, have only had them on for about 8 months but now when I brake I get shaking through the steering wheel, anybody got any idea whats going on

r44flyer · Post by **r44flyer** » Thu Mar 17, 2005 8:18 pm

warped discs i'll bet. discs have overheated and are now not running true.

that's the most likely scenario.

replacing them will solve the problem.
