That's nice! Aren't these early kv6 engines awful?

It does look nice though they were always on my 'not a real Rover' list.
Probably still are if truth be told.

Could be worse the previous owner could of painted it PINK lol

Surely more a Rover than the 75.... also a bit short of details like mileage, number of previous owners etc. The condition of the seats suggest it has not been used much. Much as I liked the look of these cars, the reputation of the early K6s would keep me away. A fine example of BL using the punters to undertake the testing of new cars.

My Sterling Coupe, which I had for nearly 13 years was the best car I ever owned.....the Honda 24 valve injection engine helped though.
The Honda engine was a major factor in buying it.

Those seats do look super comfy

Is the Honda engine an easy swap? is that what they fitted in the 400 Accord rebadge?

Comfortably Numb · 25th June 2018, 21:42

Woops, that would be the 600 series!

The Honda engine was in the Rover 827. This was replaced by the 825 with the KV6.
