Rover 400 T series Turbo

I have for sale a Rover 400 T series Turbo track car, it was originally built by Ralphs mechanics and I purchased it recently. Due to a change in circumstances (again) I would now like to sell it so I can find somewhere to live.

Here are some pictures of the car Ralph and others have taken during Ralphs ownership:
















Known jobs to tackle are: replace two front seats but there is a blue Monaco rear seat in place, I removed the carpet as I intended it for track and it was a ZS one not a 400 one. I also accidentally pulled the wire off the oil pressure gauge but this shouldn't be too much hassle to fix.

Good bits: limited slip diff, Spax coilovers all round, ZS180 brakes all round and reliable running.

The car is an ideal track car for a group of friends and I am after £800 but open to offers! 4 mates and £200 a pop sounds a bargain to me!

Or make a great sleeper, bet it would surprise a few.

When I saw it at a Leeds Castle meet, looked a neat install, went well.



Did create a lot of interest.



Best of luck with the sale.

Looks a nice car. For potential buyers, how much tax, MOT, service history does it have and was it originally a 420? What is wrong with the seats, they look fine in the pics?

no tax and currently on SORN. I don't recall service history as it is modified lol. The engine was from a late 620ti. The car itself is a 420iL. The bucket seats that were in it were inadequate for my big fat arse so I sold them and was in the process of replacing them with two blue Monaco fronts using 400 frames.

To be honest it is a case of fitting a new bucket seat in the front drivers position or a 400 seat from scrapyard so it is driveable again.
