Great to hear it is still going strong

How is the Vitesse doing?

Did you get the sills done?

Still often think about the car and the trips i made in it. Still one of the most comfortable cars i have had.

Richard, I've actually been out looking and nothing looks anywhere near as nasty on the previous two cars. The previous owner had changed from the cat back and those nuts look pretty good, whilst the other ones have significantly more material than the 827 did! Plenty of plusgas and WD40, and I rec...

rare beast in this country i guess not so rare out where you are. We only get 3.0 s types of that vintage in at our place. Suspension and gearbox are the bits to watch on those early cars................oh and the timing chain tensioners. But i get to see the worst side of Jag reilablaity so to be f...

I have some brand new gen ones if you still need any

Hi all. I have a Rover 820 vitesse gearbox going FOC. As you can guess it needs a rebuild but can be put in a car and it will drive and change gear all ok etc. The faults it has are Input seal oil leak. both output seals missing, and a large driveline clonk when taking up drive, which i suspect is a...

Which bearing is it. I fitted a complete upright to the offside front in august just before MOT.

I have a 1986 - 1991 workshop manaul, a 1992 - 1995 workshop manaul and an electrical diagnostic manual (wiring diagrams and connector loctaions) as well as the 1996 models supplumant manaul on rover RAVE system (cdrom). All in my collection of stuff. I have enough technical lit, parts info, sales b...

I am so glad you are enjoying the car, i am pleased that it has a good home. I think for the first couple of months i used to get 20-28mpg, but then when i used it as a cruiser i would get 32-35mpg. Which is good as rover quote only 29mpg ave/mixed driving. I wanted some rover sports for it but neve...

Hi it is a quite rare model as it was only made under the Vitesse "sport" name for 2 years (1994 to 1996) In 1996 the vitesse range was all made to Vitesse sport spec so the "sport" name was dropped. Oriagnally the Vitesse was offered with a 180ps 2.0 turbo engine (in MK2 form anyway) then the sport...

the new owner is on the forum, so i think that it will be to a good home. I got £460 for it........then take off the ebay fees

The car is now sold. will be sad to see it go
