Rover Mini Saloon Racing 2d (1990/H) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
I offered a below book bid as a polite way of "walking away" from the sale! After a discussion with his wife, the vendor reluctanty agreed!
Costs
Excellent for those on a tight budget. Costs half as much to run as a 1.4 litre car.
-
On the road
Driving
Fun around the corners and squeezes thru gaps with ease.
Performance
As expected for a 40bhp car. Quick(ish) of the lights.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Engine is surprisingly good, but the interior trims and switches are brittle.
Image
A classless car: a "don't give a damn" image.
Comfort
Got cramp in my right foot when I first drove it. If it isn't the driving position, then its the bouncy ride.

Security
The areas of rust and the furry dice should be enough to keep scum away!
