Rover 200 & 400 Owners Club

Hi all - new member here.
After selling my previous Honda engined model a number of years ago I’ve done it again and bought one of the increasingly rare R8 Cabrios. This one has a K series engine, but not too worried - I had an MGF for some time and other than one head gasket it was fine.
Need to do some fettling, a little bit of rust tidying up plus, most expensively, a new roof. But like most of you I’m going to save this one for the Nation.
Mechanically it seems fine - time alone will tell though!
Should be ready to visit local car meets/shows after Easter
I’m southern based - near Portsmouth actually - so won’t make be able to make many of the clubs events but I’ll be there in spirt.

I hope you enjoy the car!

Welcome to the forum fellow cabriolet owner got any

Here's mind 7 year I owned this now time flys .

Welcome buddie!
I've the same as Chris' and yours or nearly: 1994 1.4 limited edition (LHD), BRG, K engine, electric hood, beige leather trim, alloys.
Here is a yesterday picture, a quiet moment amidst rapeseed fields, while rallying against big boys in South of France (Caraman, Tarn).

Being a K-Series is a bit of a blessing now, as anecdotally some of the Honda engine parts seem to be a little harder to come by.

Welcome to the club!

Good morning, welcome & enjoy.

I've only had mine a few months and had the first run yesterday.

Thanks for the welcome folks. Do any of you live in along the South coast?

I was wondering if the club could have a presence at the Best of British meet at Beaulieu later in the year.

Any details of the BoB Beaulieu meet?

I'm in Devon and Portsmouth is almost as far as Birmingham for me , but it might be a good show for a few of us south of the M4 to attend.

Here's a link to the show.
Looks like it's limited to pre 2000 vehicles and £16 entrance price for adults, but this includes entry to the museum as well
