"Fun and unusual — a great representative of an intriguing automotive alliance of its time."

Description

The car was delivered new in Italy to its first owner in March 1995 by the dealer Auto-Ferrari S.r.l. in Brescia. It was imported to Sweden in December 2003 and registered for road use in May 2004, when it was purchased by its current owner. He and his wife have driven the car approximately 30,000 km over 20 years, exclusively during the summer months.

Recently, on April 19, 2025, the car received a comprehensive service, carried out thoroughly and partly by the owner himself. This included an oil change, coolant, brake fluid, spark plugs, rotor, distributor cap, ignition wires, timing belt/drive belt, new tires, and servicing of the air conditioning system. The most recent approved vehicle inspection was completed on April 30, 2025.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The owner is a dedicated automotive enthusiast, and the car has been meticulously maintained mechanically, with everything in excellent working order. The service book includes detailed notes on all maintenance performed (see photos), including several timing belt replacements.

    In a moment of youthful enthusiasm, the owner installed a stainless steel 3" exhaust system, giving the car a pleasant sporty tone and a distinctive tailpipe.

  • Interior condition:

    Clean and intact interior in half-leather, with minor entry wear on the left side of the driver’s seat. The targa panels are in good condition, seal well, and are easy to remove. The A/C has been recently refilled, inspected, and blows cold and efficiently.

  • Exterior condition:

    Original paint with scratches and marks exclusively from its years in Italy. During transport from there, the original left side mirror was damaged, which is why the car is now fitted with aftermarket mirrors—these also feature integrated indicators. The dent on the driver’s door occurred at the same time.

    The car is equipped with a set of new, high-quality Maxxis tires mounted on the original alloy wheels, which show only minor blemishes.

  • General condition:

    The car’s slightly weathered exterior is more than made up for by its strong mechanical and technical qualities. A visually patinated overall impression, but with plenty of reliable driving enjoyment under the surface.

Facts about the model

The Rover 220 Turbo Coupé was launched in 1992 as part of the sportier lineup of the Rover 200 series and remained in production until 1996. It was built on the R8 platform—a collaboration between Rover and Honda—but the 200 hp turbocharged engine was entirely Rover’s own creation, paired with a factory-fitted limited-slip differential (LSD).

In terms of design, it shared many visual cues with the Honda Integra, but with a distinctly British touch. The interior was classic Rover: comfortable, leather-trimmed, and relatively luxurious for its class. Despite praise from the automotive press, the 220 Turbo Coupé never achieved widespread commercial success—partly due to stiff competition, a high price tag, and Rover’s mixed reputation during the 1990s.

Today, the 220 Turbo Coupé stands out as a rare youngtimer, offering impressive performance and a raw, unmistakably '90s character.
