If you think you can pull it off ( ) and make it look cool, then go for it Jamie.

they dont go round corners, its a rover, 1800 k-series eat head gaskets for fun, build quality is shocking and its a rover, but apart from that, not bad.

and you cant get it serviced at a main dealer, and the parts are a bit hard to get hold of
and you'll look like a hairdresser
buy a calibra

the only good thing about the car is the stylish bulge in the bonnet to clear the cambelt cover
nothing else, just that
