General Comments
I am writing to warn you all about the Rover 216 Si, if rover were a gun, these would be the bullets! I am haunted by flashbacks of past journeys! This car is quick for its age and weight and although the suspension is softer than your average mattress it is possible to carry this speed through the corners. The only fault on this most excellent piece of machinery is the durability of the brake discs and pads, usually between 3 and 6 weeks! I bought this wild animal with just 33k on the clock and it has now covered 68k and I am still no closer to taming it! If your right foot has a tendency to stamp pedals uncontrollably then this my friend, is the car for you. And for the sum of just 45pounds wisely spent on a k&n induction kit this vehicle becomes more than capable of setting off car alarms!
