My names Terry i live with my 7 year old son in Staffordshire.
Have had few different rovers: 220 gsi with basic mods,214 si,420sli,220gti,620ti,620si, & current 214sli.
Have tried a few other manufactures but keep coming back to rover :-)
I rearly like the t16 engine loved testing in a 220 coupe got 140mph in forth gear before roundabout came up very fast & my old 620ti,but blew head gasket on that :-(
My partner has my 2 other kids & the other versions of rover seem a bit small or impractical.
So after advice on the 800 version especially the Vitesse fastback please.

Hell and welcome. Im sure someone will be along soon to give all the pointers in the Vitty Sport.

I had a 95 Vitesse fastback. I got it off ebay and basically bought a nail... But persevered and made it road worthy. Ther biggest letdown is the gearbox and diff. But it was a great car to drive and one of the best towcars I have ever had. I should have kept it :cry:

Good luck in your search :wink:

Welcome Terry! Hope you find the right car for you, they're still at a good price at the moment. Maybe you can make it to the 25th Anniversary meet - never know you might even pick up your car there!
Cheers,
Dave

Welcome on board the flagship. If its space you need you can't go wrong with a fastback. You will be amazed how much you can get in the back. Plus its the best shape by far.
