Description
With us now at RFH Classics we have this One Family owned from new 1993 (L) Rover 416 GSi 4 Dr Automatic that is finished in Knightfire Red Metallic with a contrasting Beige Velour cloth trim. This wonderful time capsule car was purchased from the main dealer in North London back in 1994 and remained in the first owners possession until he passed away where after the car was transferred to his wife who enjoyed ownership until recently deciding to stop driving hence the only reason the car has now come to the market since it was registered 31 years ago.
These Rover cars are getting harder to find nowadays and to have a family owned example with only 32. 005 miles on the clock is even rarer. The mileage on the car equates to it doing just a fraction over a 1, 000 miles per annum so as you can imagine, the condition is exceptionally good with excellent exterior paint work. The common issues with corroded arches hasn’t affected this vehicle and, as the pictures highlight, the car is an absolute credit to its former owner. We have just fitted a set of four new tyres to the virtually unmarked alloy wheels as the older ones were beginning to show their age.
The interior is trimmed in Beige velour cloth trim which is virtually as new with minimal wear and still retains the that distinctive smell of a Rover. The car features an electric tilt and slide sunroof that operates perfectly as well as electric windows to the two front doors. The immaculate interior is finished off with a light wood detailing to the dash and door inserts and the original fit Rover Radio helping make the whole car an exceptionally original example.
Under the bonnet this model is powered by the ultra reliable 1. 6 litre 16v Honda DOHC power unit that when new produced a respectable 109 bhp and delivered its smooth and dependable performance through the 4 speed automatic transmission for effortless driving. The car has been regularly serviced by the suppling dealer who although no longer a dedicated Rover dealer, still occupy the site it was supplied from. This family owned 416 GSi is a standout example that represents the best of 1990s British engineering with the Honda’s input ensuring reliability and longevity. Whether you’re a collector or simply after a comfortable, characterful daily driver, this 416 GSi delivers a blend of practicality and nostalgia that’s hard to match.
