Rover 416SLI Tourer
MOT'd until March 2024, Last serviced in January at 88k miles.
This is a rare opportunity to purchase a rare Rover 400 Tourer with full service history. This car remained in the same family from new until February 2021 when I purchased it. Prior to myself it had only two keepers who were father and daughter.
This Rover is equipped with the dependable 1. 6 litre Honda D16 petrol engine and 5 speed manual gearbox. It runs and drives superbly and has not once let me down in the time I have owned it. The engine is smooth, does not use any oil or water and will average over 45mpg on a long run.
SLI specification includes velour upholstery, wood trim, electric tilt/ slide sunroof, 2x electric windows, alarm & immobiliser, remote central locking and electric mirrors.
This car has been lovingly maintained throughout its life with no expense spared. It comes with an enormous history file containing every invoice from new. The original bill of sale, old V5s, tax discs, MOT certificates and much more are also present.
This car has been used daily throughout most of its life so aesthetically isn't in pristine condition. The bodywork is rough around the edges with fading, lacquer peel and a few minor scuffs and dings. The interior condition however is excellent with very little wear for the age and mileage albeit a sagging headliner.
Virtually everything on the car works besides a few minor issues: The passenger side electric window needs attention, the electrics work but the glass has detached from the runner. Central locking only works on nearside doors. The stereo turns on but wont produce any sound.
As stated previously this car has been incredibly well maintained with services documented at : 5k, 9k, 12k, 17k, 20k, 24k, 27k, 31k, 34k, 38k, 42k, 48k, 53k, 56k, 60k, 63k, 65k, 68k, 70k, 73k, 74k, 75k, 76k, 80k, 82k, 86k, 88k
It would be impossible to list everything done to this car in addition to regular servicing but recent work includes:
Cambelt & water pump 27/ 03/ 19 @ 74k miles
Goodyear tyres fitted to rear 16/ 04/ 21 @ 78k miles
Waxoyl undersealed 21/ 09/ 21 @ 81k miles
Gearbox oil changed, thermostat and coolant replaced 20/ 10/ 21 @ 82k miles
Battery replaced 03/ 12/ 22 @ 88k miles
I intended to keep this car for a long time and will be truly sorry to see it go but I have two other Rovers and this one is getting the least use. Overall its a nice well maintained car, a very practical and reliable modern classic that could easily be used as a daily driver.
Comes with 3 ignition keys and 2 remote fobs
