Hi guys
Names Will, i live in Sooham, Cambridgeshire. Test drove a stunning LE kitted 20t with nothing but a cat back adn green cotton. on the test drive it was fast it scared it scaed the shit out of me, and ive had evos, supras, 370z(which ws just written off..thanks old lady) being that theyre so similar to the Rover coupe which ive loved several times over the years i got it. However, on the way it started playing up like boost surging or missing /coughing. And the brakes judder like made :-( Just my bloody luck. Still ive fixed worse so hopefully with your lot's MIGHTY help. well get through it. I work at a modified car company so if you want anything near cost let me know.
All the best WIll

Will, welcome and good luck.... I have 3 of them, and wouldn't dream of maintaining them myself. Mind you, I am a mechanical numpty and these ladies are fiendishly difficult to keep at 100%. It sounds as if you may have a fuelling problem and/or a boost leak. If it was my car I would let one of our specialists have a look at her; it won't cost the earth and will be very instructive. I live in Kent, but take my cars to Midlands Car Servicing in Shepshed (details on the forum). John will sort you out . Other specialists are available!! Good luck, Tim

Keep your ears peeled though for odd noises (and check the oil ). Never fear, she will be fine and give you lots of fun...

Welcome aboard. Ive had a fair few rover coupes aswell and must say the fiat coupe is alot better and you can get good power out of a standard block unlike the rover T-16 lol

Welcome to coupe ownership. Sounds like trivial issues you would get on most coupes, enjoy.

Hello and welcome, Will! You remind me of my first test drive on my Coop! And my first words after the test drive - "So that`s how it feels to be a TRAIN DRIVER?!" I work at a modified car company so if you want anything near cost let me know. Is there a website or a parts list somewhere handy?

Thanks so much guys, i love it but its causing me some headaches at the moment. Missing, boost fluctuating.
Markiz, were trying to get the site back from a hacker attack, but from a few things are:
Samco Gaz Coilovers Pro Alloy Powerflex Plastics for performance DG GRP panels (bonnets anyone) Superflex SFS Ferrodo Team dynamics Rota
We do brake disc skimming service.
