Details:
The R8 Rover 200, sometimes referred to as the Mk 2 Rover 200, was launched in 1989. Unlike the Mk 1, Ballade-based, 200, this model was a 5 door hatchback designed to replace the Maestro while the saloon variant, called 400, was the replacement for the Mk 1 200. The 400 had a different nomenclature to the 200 because at the time many saloon versions of compact cars were positioned slightly upmarket from their hatchback siblings, often featuring higher specification and prices, in addition to different names. The 200 also spawned 3 door hatchback, coupé and convertible versions, while the 400 spawned an estate version. These variants were solely Rover designed and produced products, with no Honda version available.

The R8 200 was the first car to be introduced by the newly privatised Rover Group. Once again, the model was designed in collaboration with Honda (who produced the new designed-for-Europe Concerto model) and both models would share production lines at Rover's Longbridge facility. The 200 and Concerto itself were based on the 4th generation EC Honda Civic of which the 3dr, coupé CRX and saloon versions were sold in the UK.

Offered here is a 1993 example of the 214SLi, which has covered just 37,000 miles in the hands of a single owner. The car was supplied and pre registered by Rover Dealer G. Kingsbury of Hampton. The one and only owner was Mr Athony Waller, an ex-military man, who kept the car in pristine condition and garaged when not in use. His son has kept the car stored since his father passed away and it remains in superb condition.

Finished in Alpine white with grey cloth, the car is equipped with the K series engine, 5-speed transmission, tinted glass, electric windows, sunroof, walnut veneer trim and the original Rover stereo.

Described, by the vendor, as flawless, the car comes complete with the original dealer sticker in the rear screen, original number plates, dealer key fob, owner's handbooks, service history booklet (only containing stamps from supplying dealer) and other related documentation.

Offered for sale, to its second owner, for the first time in over 20 years.
