Model: Rover 213S
Year: 1986
Mileage: 42,000 miles
Tax: September 2014
MOT: June 2015
Location: Wirral or Leamington Spa
Hi,
I bought this for my dad - long story cut short, he has been after one for years, but when I bought it for him, he wasn't that interested.
It's just had fuel tank flushed, and carb rebuilt and fuel lines blown through. I bought a new clutch for it (pedal is high but not slipping), and will fit it on Friday. Also changing oil and filter. It needs no other work.
The car is very clean and tidy, with very insignificant rust. Rear arches are spotless, and it passed it's MOT without any advisories.
Collect from Wirral or Leamington Spa. Will take offers on price if you come and view the car. Genuine interest only

Looks fab, love the plate too, reminds me of Vanden Plas. Wish I had a few quid to spare, this'd look fantastic sat on some rad wheels and laying frame! GLWTS

My dad had 2 mk1 SD3s back in the 80's - an 84 213 VDP and an 86 216 Vitesse, so I obviously love this!
Where is there any rust as it looks very clean.
Is the headlining OK as I understand this can sag quite badly
Is there any history with it, especially evidence of a cambelt change?
Cheers and GLWS, I could be very interested!

Rust on sill, there's a bit of rust on the bottom of the door as well. It's hiding no nasties, it is very clean. I've had two of these before and I know how badly they decompose in random places (roof, bootlid, a pillars, anywhere!) Ha @ headlining. Previous owner removed it and put carpet up. I was expecting the worst - but it actually looks quite good.  Sadly there is no history with it - I could do the cambelt if I got asking price. |

This has soooo much potential, and the fact that it's hearing aid beige makes it pure win!

Yeah, I've only seen one of these with the 'lowering' treatment, and it looked great.
Parts for these are -extremely- cheap on ebay!

Most stuff for R8 Rovers will probably fit too, and because of the way the back suspension works they are easy to sort camber out with a few washers. Love it.

The car for sale looks infinitely better than that ^^ Sometimes, to do nothing is to do so much more in my opinion.

First time, winning bidder loses his job 1/2 an hour after the auction ends (What luck! Could you believe it!)
Second time it finishes 1p under the reserve!
