FOR SALE A Rover 200 BRM LE Press car with only 21,225 miles and three owners. EQUIPMENT BRM orange airdam, wire mesh grille, sparkle silver door mirrors, bodyside mouldings, bumper inserts, tailgate lift handle and door handles. Enamel BRM badges, green tinted windscreen, high mounted brake light, electric windows, sunroof and door mirrors, remote central locking, perimetric and volumetric alarm system. Machined turned aluminium door handles, heater controls, handbrake button, gearknob and gaiter bezel. Red leather steering wheel, door pulls, console cover, handbrake grip and gaiter. Stereo radio/cassette (R770). Factory Options: Passenger airbag, Rover carpet mats. EXTERIOR Finished in heritage Brooklands Green, (Code HYF), the paint has a wonderful gloss shine and is a colour evocative of an historical era and of the BRM marque with the Orange snout airdam. A few touched in chips and marks do not detract from the impressive appearance and this rare car has been continually garaged since October 1999 after its stardom in the world media. The underside is beautifully preserved and wears its low 21,225 miles well with no structural corrosion or repairs, so otherwise typical of this model. Dealer supplied number plates, tax disc holder and Rover service sticker are all still attached. Quality enamel BRM emblems adorns the front wings of this exclusive performance hot hatch. INTERIOR A stunning interior developed by interior designer, Tony Hunter, (who also went on to develop the interior of the R50 Mini), is finished in quilted Red leather, (Code CEN). Styling cues from the 60’s racing era and traditional craftmanship is echoed throughout with twin-needle top stitching, machined aluminium components and spotless Red cut pile carpets. Engine turned aluminium is used for the facia insert finish and all controls, switches and gauges work seamlessly with a quality feel, perhaps thanks to the SDV’s revisions compared to regular production cars? The boot area is clean with a unused factory fitted spare and full tool kit. Standard, immaculate and bespoke. ENGINE & TRANSMISSION Allied to the acclaimed Rover 200Vi is the 1.8 litre 4-cylinder VVC engine developing 143bhp at 6750rpm and 174Nm or torque at 4000rpm. 0-60mph is reached in just 7.9 seconds and top speed is 127mph. This car accelerates faster than many of its mainstream hot hatch contemporaries with an immaculate engine bay displaying factory plates, stickers, labels and even coloured PDI dabs! As a precaution only, the vehicle has a recently fitted upgraded multi layered head gasket. The 200 BRM features revised gear ratios which combined with a Torsen differential and chassis improvements, offers a thrilling drive. WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES Unique 16 inch six-spoke 200 BRM Sports alloy wheels with prized now obsolete BRM centre caps are immaculate with no kerb damage. Matching Dunlop Sport Maxx 205/45 R16 tyres were fitted in 2021 with masses of tread. This Limited Edition model comes with standard anti-lock brakes with discs to all four wheels, ventilated to the front and revisions to the master cylinder for improved brake feel and response.
