A good review and very enjoyable. Very, very Well presented.Great feature on the 800. They are lovely and much underrated cars. The Bolero red coupe looks lovely and the 827sli fantastic. The V6 honda engine is a great engine. The KV6 was often referred to as the steam kettle by some because of the head gasket issues. Its the same colour as my car Azure blue. I have been able to return 33-34 mpg at a nice steady 70 on a long journey. For a 2.7 i think that's quite good. Particularly if you compare them to the technology of the previous decades. My dad owned a wolseley six 2200 twin carb and we got about 26/28 mpg.

The rover 800 is such a fine motor and I would love one if one came about at the right time. The Honda V6 is something I would aim for but the KV6 rarely suffers from HG, well-designed engine but considered slightly dissapointing compared to the T-Series in terms of overall performance without modification! That is pretty good fuel economy for that engine all I've heard how thirsty they are!

Such a shame rover wS bought up by len lord and bmc. Rovers were cracking motors and the sd1 should have been one of the best ever. Let down by bmc build quality. Later ones was the engines with the head gasket letting go. Class vid as always bud

Thanks Darren :) The SD1 had everythng going for it, if only the bodies had just a little more rust protection! The quality fizzled out slowly but not surprisingly in many ways they remained competitive and actually very reliable against the competition, I remember the 45 being in the top 10 of the reliability charts year after year!

No the MX5 was just too good no offense to anything else, the MGF was a fine sports car but just didn't have the edge of the MX5.
