Advantages: Cheap to buy, speedy

Disadvantages: Poor quality build, "grandad" cred

The Rover 214SEi is my second car, the first being a D Reg Polo 1043cc.

Obviously given the power differential, the Rover 214 does have extra zoom in the tank, capable of 60 in about 10-12 seconds. The top speed thatI have pulled is 120mph (ssh!), and there felt like there was a little left.

The build quality doesnt appear to be as good as the Polo, it does have a cheap feel to it, although cosmetically it is nicer due to the younger age. It does have nice parts, especially the Chrome ROVER badges under the front doors.

I would certainly consider getting another Rover in the future, although I would favour VW as a manufacturer.
