1994 Rover 214i 8v

As mentioned, this car was kindly given to me by my elder brother before I passed my test.  She resided in my garage for at least six months until Mrach 2006 when I passed my practical driving test.  Not really much to say about this car apart from the fact that it was twin carb. which made her pretty nippy round town.  Unfortunately on a family outing one day she decided to start overheating and eventually ended up with fatal headgasket failure.  I could have had her fixed but thought it was time for a change so decided to put her up for sale on eBay where she went for the princely sum of £50 which included about £50 worth of V.E.D.
