Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1992 Rover 216 Cabriolet Auto is powered by a Honda engine, features a 4-speed automatic transmission, and has historic vehicle status in six years. It benefits from several new parts, including front wings, brakes, cambelt, water pump, and fuel tank.

Condition 

6

The car has had many new parts, but with a current speedometer reading of 86,720, I expect it to have moderate wear on exterior, interior, and/or wheels. The listing mentions historic vehicle status in six years implying that it is not in perfect condition.
