Rover 200 & 400 Owners Club Forum

Thanks for that Johnny, I guess I will have to take a day to get all the parts measured up before buying.

Has anyone used https://m.euspares.co.uk/original-parts/rover/200/200-hatchback-xw/3221-216-gsi Or https://m.autopartspro.co.uk/rover-carparts/200-hatchback-xw/3221/10363/air-filter-passenger-compartment For parts? There seems to be an OTT choice for brands and prices.. with different sizes too :hea...

Thanks for that James

When I said "wurth product that Johnny mentioned" I was talking about the plastic dye. I have never heard of such a product and am eager to see its permanent results!

Other people have recommended a generous smear of peanut butter on the grey bumpers

Does that peanut butter come with a pinch of salt?

I've always used auto glym bumper care on all external plastics and rubber on all my cars. It works a treat and lasts for some time. Like Johnny said about the Wurth product it needs to be applied to clean and dry plastic in dry conditions. However it doesnt require masking and works very well on ru...

Richard Bosworth Thank you Richard, your registration is amazing! Perfect for a golden 216 cabriolet :D There is still some way to...

Gave him his first outside wash yesterday. Warm water and 2 bucket system with autoglym car shampoo. Got rid of all the moss at the bottom of the windows and around the chrome strips. :clapping Not that it will last too long in the British winter weather but hey will make the next wash easier :D Cou...

Thanks for that James, that will come in very handy!

I will be taking the dash out at some point so I'll figure it out. Hopefully I wont end up breaking it further

fortunately my headlining isnt that bad but it has dropped at the rear.
Where can I find this article?

Thanks for the replies guys, perhaps I should have used pictures, it certainly would have made the explaining easier! The bit that moves is the horizontal bar inside the tailgate itself, could this just be the spring gone? The cable running from the lever in the drivers footwell is stretched to its ...

For sure, sounds great

I can pop my boot open with the key or the lever but closing it is another story. I spent 45 mins today trying to get the boot to click closed. Upon inspecting the mechanism it is very loose, I can move the bar a good inch without affecting the lock at all! I couldnt take any of the plastic trim off...
