Description
Rover 25 1.4 petrol, was my wife's car and was used everyday up until a few weeks ago when she got a larger car. We have had the Rover for the last few years and done about 30k in that time with no issue's at all in fact probably the most reliable car we have had.
I have it as spare or repair as it is needing a few small jobs done on it now but still has mot till 17 November.
We have never had any issue with cylinder head and I don't think it has ever been done so must be one of the very lucky ones.
Few jobs done just before it went off the road was,
2x new front tyres (rear still very good)
New radiator
New discs and pads
New fan motor resistor
Some of the jobs needing done,
Knocking from the front on rough ground ( sounds like drop links or track rod)
Very slight blow from exhaust but not very old so would say a slack clamp or joint.
Slight smell of petrol if you fill the tank to the top so would say sounds like pump or sender gasket needing done on the top of the tank.
Could be more small things as I never drove it.
It will need a good wash and hoover out. The body isn't to bad normal rust blisters where 25's normally have them but underneath is very good.
PLEASE NO TIME WASTERS ITS £150 NOT £15000!
