Further to comments from other people, if you can avoid a Q it will probabaly help your resale values, and and has already been said. Even if you have to go to an auction, and buy a Rover now matter how bad, and scrao it, you will have the log book ect.

For matter of interst, the 1600 is no slouch, good fun, and various companies like, QED motor sport will sell you some good stuff to improve your 1600.

Happy searching.
