Purely my opinion mate, looks like something a chav would do after spending his money in halfords. I know nothing about Rovers (and I'll free admit that because I have no interest in them), so never even knew this car existed in a factory form.

1.8 16v twin cam engine, lowered ride height, close ratio gearbox, better dampers and the diff from a 220 turbo.

Better pics.

No disputing the heritage / spec but those colour choices are somewhat brave.

Agree With the first half of the sentence... Shit lol friend bought an mg zr160 track car stripped it out, suspension, de-catted all sorts of bits and bobs.

We spanked him in a bog standard Clio 172, soon realised how toss rovers are even after some nice bits lol

Yeah there's no comparison between it and a 172

They're not too bad though for how much they go for if you want something a bit different.
