I went for fish and chips near home in Bingham, Notts last night (1st Feb) at about 6 p.m. When I got back to my car a flat-bed truck was parked behind me with a clean-looking Rover 200 on-board. Did not take a picture, but its Reg was T44BRM, Green colour and the Reg shows up as Sep1999. The MOT hi...

Yeah, tend to agree, that looks like a get you home repair for use at at low speed.Less than 25-30 mph at best.

John is coming in Rover H696WTV.

Good luck

Pictures of mid-section on my 5 door 216GTi, and fittings.






Hope these help.
