1994 Rover - Austin 600 620 Si 2.0

Summary:

Fast and elegant

Faults:

Rear right power lock failed at 190,000 km.

Front CV joints had to be replaced at 210,000 km.

Front right power window failed at 240,000 km.

General Comments:

This car is fast and comfortable. It is suited for long journeys in all conditions of weather. You can drive at 180 km/h on freeways with strong later wind and feel the vehicle running like a train.

Being British born it's very elegant, without being arrogant.

In a couple of occasions brakes locked the front wheels resulting in a crash with the preceding vehicle. I recommend to use very good tires on this car and keep suspensions serviced, in order to lessen the chance of brake locking.

After last crash I decided not to repair the car and buy a new one with ABS.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Don't Know
