Four-seater convertible at a low price
Extremely rare in France
The second generation Rover 200 was released in 1989.
Designed with the help of the Japanese manufacturer
Honda, 80% of the parts are common to the Honda
Concerto. From 1986, it was offered in six body styles.
Initially a five-door saloon, the 200 series was offered in
four-door (in 1990) and three-door (in 1991) versions
before the appearance of coupe and cabriolet variants
(in 1992) and an estate (in 1994), actually based on the
Rover 400.
It was during the design of the 200 series that Rover
developed the new K series petrol engines, the result of
a heavy investment of nearly £250 million, which would
gradually equip almost all of the manufacturer’s models
and serve as the basis for the future V6 engine.
The second generation 200 series is emblematic of Rover
productions in that it is the brand’s «greatest commercial
success» with almost 950,000 units produced, while
representing a form of culmination of the association
with Honda initiated a few years earlier.
Relax, it’s a Rover» was Rover’s slogan in the 1990s. The
214 convertible is a perfect illustration of this. With its
4-cylinder, 16-valve, 1.4-litre, twin-cam engine, it could
surprise many of its contemporaries at the traffic lights.
That said, this car is ideal for cruising the French beach
roads with originality, a surfboard on the back and hair
in the wind. It is equipped with front disc brakes and
two airbags for safety. On the inside, the electric windows
and the touch of wood on the dashboard remind us of
British chic. Unfortunately, the varnish of our car is
flaking, so a coat of paint is to be considered in order to
drive with class and non-conformism in this charming
little English car.
