Approx. one quarter or maybe less of the original black paint still present and the remainder of the surfaces have light rust but no serious pitting anywhere.  Threads very clean and good.  Both are straight and true.

Will suit any model in the Rover 200 series from 1989 to 1995 (any engine size, etc.) and also the coupe, cabriolet and tourer in the R8 range from their respective start years to their respective final years (1999/2000).

Will also fit the Rover 200 / 25 from 1995 onwards.

There's a succession part - RBL000250 for the quoted ranges of cars but I don't know what the difference is.  These are definitely the original RBL10014.  I would guess there is no actual physical/measurable difference.

Will NOT fit Streetwise and MG ZR unfortunately (related to 16" wheels) - there are two different part numbers for those cars - RBL106590 and RBL000260.  Presumably they are a subtly different length to pull the alignment to help accommodate the larger radius of the tyres on 16" rims.

In the photographs, after the first photo of the two parts together I've taken 5 photographs showing close-up rod sections all the way along their length from the threaded tips to the lower arm flats at the top.  Then I flipped the items over 180 degrees and photographed the other sides in 5 sections, so you can literally see everything.

I personally think this is a really good pair having seen a fair few in my time.

I'm under on shipping cost as these are 2Kg net and will need a 2-5Kg service to send once packaged, but I'll absorb the costs in the sale price.
