1999 ROVER 200 BRM

The Rover 200 BRM was a special edition run of 1109 cars, 797 of which were for the UK market. Along with its British Racing Green livery with orange nose - a reference to Rover's old links with Formula 1 team British Racing Motoring (BRM) - its 145bhp 1.8-litre K-Series engine was linked to a close ratio gearbox and limited slip differential, and there was lower and stiffer suspension plus a red leather interior. This example, registered in September 1999, has been off the road since 2017 and is being sold as a project after being rescued by UK Barn Finds, but the vendor tells us that it starts, runs and drives. The odometer shows 92,066 miles and its last MoT expired in May 2017 after being tested the previous year at an indicated 91,303 miles. Paperwork includes the current and past V5Cs, some old invoices and MoTs back to 2004. There's also a spare key fob as well.
