The Denzil runabouts Tax and test come to their end at the end of Dec, and economical as the Mondy is, after 250k miles, I think its done its duty and needs a replacement. What Im after to replace it, is a 214 Rover, preferably "L" reg or after, with the 16v "K" series engine. Not fussed on 3 or 5 doors, but it must be the 1.4 to get in the cheaper tax band. Sooooo, if anyone knows of one for sale, please let me know  Thanks

Been looking for the last few weeks, but all they have had are 216's and they break the higher tax band  Theres a few on ebay - the SEi's - these have the 1/2 leather as well  Few going for £300-£400 but they are all miles away The 1.4 shouldnt be much different on the MPG that the Denzil, and Im led to belive the 1.4 "K" series engine pops out 115bhp! A mate has the slightly newer 400 (bubble shape), same motor (1.4) and a VTR had real trouble passing on the motorway last week - literally crawled past 1mph faster.
