Description
For sale is my 1998 Rover 216 S Model Tomcat in silver with 133, 000 miles and a full service history.
This is the S Model, not the SE Model, and it is a completely standard and increasingly rare specification. This is why it has the original wheel caps, no fog lights and no rear spoiler — exactly how the S Model was supplied from the factory.
The car is in excellent overall condition for its age and drives beautifully. It is also very solid underneath with no rust underneath.
There is some bubble rust starting on the rear arches, but nothing major, and the car remains very solid. The front black roof could benefit from a respray to freshen it up.
