This Cayman Blue Rover 820 Vitesse Coupe, with grey leather interior and black piping, was registered in January 1998 and sold via Hartwells of Bristol.

It features the 200bhp 1998cc engine as also used in the Rover Tomcat coupe, matched to a five‑speed manual gearbox and Torsen limited slip differential.

Being a higher spec executive Rover, the car features a high standard of equipment such as twin electric seats, sunroof and CD changer (all of which are working).

The 820 is considered the most desirable of the coupe range, being the only manual transmission model.

The current owner purchased the car in October 2013 and carried out extensive work to get the car into the excellent condition it is in today.

It was given two new (factory) wings and a replacement door.

A replacement sill was specially fabricated.

After that, the car was resprayed after being stripped and corrosion‑treated.
