Hello all,hope everyone's OK
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
Good luck in your search

Out in the desert with a 1998 Grand Cherokee V8, 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4L and a 1997 Chevy Tahoe V8. Back home: 1969 MGC GT
Damn, just round the corner from me too, would have saved me a lot of driving to get mine.....not that I have any regrets as I love my Coupe!Richard Moss wrote:Cheapish Vitesse coupe here: http://www.rover800.info/forum/viewtopi ... highlight=

welcome
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.
