Rover 400 Saloon 416 SLi Cat 4d Auto (1994/L) Owner Review
-
Economy
Value
Very standard. PAS/ABS are the only highlights. Very cheap bargains around.
Costs
Good on fuel for an auto. Parts are cheap - lots of scrap ones around to replace parts that go wrong, which doesn't really happen. Insurance high - group 11 - why??

On the road
Driving
Handling is ok, but if made better this car would be more enjoyable.
Performance
Good all round.

Living with it
Reliability
Little goes wrong. Honda breed, so it'll have its reputation. Drive-shaft is the only thing I had replaced, but immobiliser and driver's door mechanism give you grief when failed.
Image
Nothing special, but once lowered and alloyed etc, can look a touch more catching.
Comfort
Good all round.

Security and Service
Security
Autos are harder to nick than manuals - has five cut-offs.
Service
Private is always the best option on most things for any car.
