Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1987 Rover SD1 Vitesse is a classic example with a 3.5-liter V8 engine and a rare manual gearbox. It has been restored with a resprayed exterior, refurbished wheels, and a well-maintained interior, but the car requires attention to the Twin Plenum chamber to resolve a sticking butterfly flap issue.

Condition 

7

The car has been resprayed and machine polished, the wheels refurbished, and new tires fitted. The interior is in good shape with a new headlining and well-maintained carpets and dashboard. Mechanically, it has had many new parts and reconditioned components, but there is an existing issue with the Twin Plenum chamber that needs to be sorted.
