Description

Rover 216 SE Cabriolet in Tahiti blue. This has the more desirable Honda engine with the even rarer automatic gearbox. I have a comprehensive service history file showing an excellent maintenance record. I also have the original owners wallet with radio and key codes. The car was owned from new (1995) right up until 2018 by the original owner. The 2nd keeper then had from them until 2023. It changed hands a couple of times through members of the owners club and fellow enthusiasts and is now mine. I'm fortunate enough to have the previous keepers V5 (log books) to verify the ownership history. The current MOT runs until August 2025 and has no advisory items. The roof is electric and functions correctly, although the hood has shrunk a little bit and would look aestheticly easier on the eye with a good clean. It does seem water tight but I have had the car covered for the most part so couldn't swear to how it would hold up if left uncovered in a storm. The overall condition of the bodywork is reasonable with no obvious rust. The bonnet has had an amateurish rattle can respray at some point as had the boot lid, although that's better. The interior of the car is good with no rips or tears in the leather upholstery. The drivers door card could do with a tighten as it makes a tiny rattle when you close the door. This doesn't cause any issues at any other time or seem to happen when driving. This is a private sale and the car is registered to me at the address I'm selling it from. I've recently acquired a 2nd rover cabriolet and with only having limited parking where I live I've decided to put this one up for sale. Please bear in mind this is a nearly 30 year old car and is not in mint condition. It would benefit immensely from a little TLC but is entirely usable as it is. Lastly it's had an aftermarket dab radio fitted with hands free kit. I haven't tried to connect my phone to it so have idea how well that works. The radio is fine though. Located in South London. Price is open to reasonable negotiation. Next MOT due 06/08/2025, Blue, 5+ owners, £972
