a few plans but dont want to spend a great deal maybe £200 at the most,

de-badge is a must, face off grill and zr spoiler, my red alloys, new lights, bit of audio maybe lower it slightly depending if i can source some springs.

got plenty of spare audio gear, and alloys that fit already, picked up some new lights and a spoiler for £40 off a guy on the mg-rover clubs site.

just need a grill, spray and fit myself should be able to meet the budget :D

I love Rovers. But not with bits stuck on, I find that they look best standard.

Good car for the money Ray, but as above I thought this was a run around lol. Thought run arounds were left standard :P .

Neither wonder Rover went bust though, flogging us a dressed up 93' Honda Civic until 2005.

Aye, the 400/45/ZS let them down before the end.

I loved my Montego though.
