Get this....the cambelt on my 130000 mile Rover 623Gsi snapped 12 weeks ago, so I bought a 115000 mile Rover 216Sli to tide me over until the 'S' arrives. Last night I was driving home when a very familiar sound emenated from the engine compartment....yep....cambelt gone.

Now the lucky bit....my 'S' is ready and waiting at the dealers.

And another bad bit...they have FIFTY new MINI's to handover in the next 10 days....and cant tell me yet when I get the pleasure of picking mine up!!!

Anyone need spares for a 623 or 216 Rover.....I'm your man!!

Thanks Paul, I sure hope so. I think an 'S' is a good enough reward for putting up with Rovers for the last eight years!!
