Rover 200 Coupe 216 2d (1995/M) Owner Review
-
Economy
Value
Coupe commands a comparable premium over hatchback and 400 miles to a full tank of petrol.
Costs
Everyday motoring parts for a sporty coupe - bargain.
-
On the road
Driving
Standard suspension looks very 4x4. Sports springs sharpen looks and delivers sporty driving dynamics that match its appearance.
Performance
Engine sounds weak with standard o/e. Induction kit, sports exhaust and de-cat really free up its potential without compromising economy.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Turn-key reliability - Honda engine and gearbox. 6 months servicing and regular 2 year cambelt changes will ensure trouble-free motoring.
Image
Looks stunning even today - guaranteed to turn heads if modified tastefully.
Comfort
Recaro seats support well and driving position is superb. Rear is comfy and for a coupe accomodates adults well.

Security and Service
Security
Standard alarm and immobilser not the best. Cat 1 alarm is recommended upgrade due to the targa top.
Service
Wrights of Sleaford are customer focused and the work is excellent.
