Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1988 Rover 827Si, with 84,111 miles and four previous owners, presents a mix of cosmetic wear and mechanical upkeep. While the exterior shows lacquer peel and the interior has damaged sun visors, recent servicing including a cambelt, water pump, brakes, and exhaust work, along with a clean MOT, suggest it's mechanically sound.

Condition
6
The car shows signs of age with lacquer peeling on the driver's side and fuel flap. The interior is mostly good, but the sun visors are torn, with part of the driver's side missing. However, it has been mechanically well-maintained, with a recent service including cambelt, water pump, brakes, and exhaust. It also has a valid MOT with no advisories.

Description Low mileage example; just four owners; MOT April '24; mechanically well looked after Introduced in 1988 and fitted with the punchy Honda 2.7-litre V6, the 827Si incorporated Honda's four speed auto box with close ratios and lower overall gearing compared to the less sporty 800 models.
The press liked its performance - good for the 62mph dash in 8.4 seconds which is still impressive for a big, comfy saloon.
With a price tag of over £14,000 at the time, they were reasonable sellers but were not highly prized as time went by which is probably why there are so few left today.
For those 'died in the wool' Rover fans out there, and there are many, this 827 Si represents the top of the late '80s range and has still only covered 84,111 miles from new! It is MOT'd until 27 th of April 2024 according to the DVLA website with no advisories showing and it certainly moved around nicely while taking the photos.
Still looking sharp 34 years since first registration, it is showing some...
