Hi Mike, Welcome to BP.

Hi and welcome to BP.
You run a 220 is this the turbo or non turbo or diesel?? The 200 series were actually fun cars to drive i remember my first time out in a 220 coupe very impressed only downside was massive torque steer from the turbo version but made a very entertaining drive. Gotta luv them rovas Such a shame Rover went to the wall just when they were produceing some of the nicest cars they had for years IMO. Oh the memories

I thought it was you with the Rover 220.
Skyline is rebuilt again and ok, I have another Pulsar which is almost as quick as the old one, a tuned Rover Metro Gti that i use as a van and a Saab 900 turbo 185bhp model that i am selling soon.
See you at a meet then
