Rover 820 Vitesse Fastback - £5,995
A very rare car indeed, one of only 38 according to How Many Left , we are pleased to offer this exceptional Rover 820 Vitesse in very good condition and a great specification. Equipped with the T16 engine, in Turbo form these engines delivered 197 bhp so it is no slouch and with Recaro seats and sports suspension, it is an engaging drive with lots and lots of room - the boot is huge.
The history file has a schedule of maintenance, a previous owner listing everything that was done to the car and it shows diligent maintenance. More recently, we have carried out a service on the car and submitted it for an MoT which it passed without advisory notes.
The overall condition is impressive and the colour really does suit the car being a muted tone reminiscent of Rovers of the past. The interior is in excellent order and the sculpted Recaro seats are very comfortable.
There are some useful spares with the car, a second key plus handbooks.
The car is 25 years old so there are a few marks here and a couple of minor electrical niggles but overall it is a fine and rare example.
Available for viewing in our dry, well lit sales barn, by appointment please.
Bodywork
Straight and solid with no areas requiring immediate attention.
Mechanical
Performed very well on test, engine is quiet and smooth and the suspension sporty but not uncomfortable. The history file shows regular servicing has been carried out.
Exterior
The paintwork is in good condition all over and responded well to a light polish, bumpers, lights and trim are all in good shape, the alloy wheels were refurbished in the not so distant past.
Interior
A comfortable and very spacious interior, the trim and seats are all in excellent condition.
Apart from our accurate and reliable description of this car we believe you will not find a better bunch of chaps to deal with; we know our MGs inside out, we won’t flannel you with sales speak and we aim to provide you with a car that you will be bringing back in a year’s time when the next service and MOT is due, no sooner! However, if you do have a problem we will stand by our car and help you in every way possible. We like to think that 38 years in this business counts for something.
We are in the quiet Berkshire countryside but close to the M4 and Mortimer Railway Station. Our local pub, the Elm Tree is just a few minutes’ walk away and serves fantastic food and proper beers. Call us to arrange a viewing and a test-drive and come and make a day of it.
