An utterly gorgeous Rover Montego 2.0 LXi with a miniscule 2,193 miles.
EQUIPMENT
Body-coloured moulded bumpers, front spoiler, laminated windscreen, halogen headlamps, retractable aerial in screen pillar, bronze tinted glass, electric slide/tilt sunroof with interior blind, electrically adjustable twin door mirrors, central locking, electric windows, R562 electronic stereo/radio cassette with 4 speakers, variable delay for the intermittent wipe, illuminated switches, digital clock, tachometer, low oil pressure and fuel lights, cigar lighter, coin tray, boot courtesy lamp, twin-tone horns, adjustable front seat belt upper mounts, remote boot release. Factory Options; Duo-tone paint. Accessories; Montego mud flaps front and rear, side coach line, 2X lounge cushions.
EXTERIOR
Rarely can a vehicle be described as factory perfect but this splendid Montego with only 2,193 miles from new is just that, perfect! Finished in striking and factory optional duo-tone paint Flame Red/Regent Grey, (Code RWN), it has a bright vibrant shine thanks to home garage storage and low dry weather use only. The moulded bumpers and claret bumper/side rubbing strips are straight with no damage and all trim, rubbers and badges are as new. One rear trim has a few minor stress fractures barely noticeable and all glass is unmarked. The underside, wheel arch apertures and all shuts remain beautifully clean still with factory wax applied.
INTERIOR
The elegant interior of this magnificent Montego offers amazing space and the contoured seats are superbly comfortable with hard and soft foams finished in Zenith, (Code LCG). The excellent console layout and clear instrumentation is all operational and there is no damage, cracks or lift to the colour-keyed facia. The moulded headlining is perfect as are the wood veneered inserts with no UV fading thanks to careful garage storage from new. A huge 18.4 cu.ft boot has never seen a load and lifting the boot carpet reveals factory untouched perfection.
ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The 4-cylinder transverse OHC 1994cc engine with a three-way controlled catalyst produces 103bhp thanks to programmed ignition with electronic fuel injection. A top speed of 112mph and 0-60mph in 9.8 secs is quoted. The unit is eager, quiet and comes with a close-ratio transmission on the fuel-injected 2 litre petrol models. Progress through the gears is smooth and responsive and the exhibitionist will marvel how stunningly original under the bonnet is.
WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
Steel wheels measuring 14inch are graced with unmarked full width wheel trims with new 185/65 R14 Uniroyal RainExpert 5 tyres fitted in March 2024. The servo-assisted, diagonal split dual circuit system with ventilated front disc brakes and drums to the rear, offer assured straight line stopping power.
HISTORY FILE
What an amazing history. Registered by the Rover Group, Company Vehicle Sales, Canley Road, Coventry on the 27th May 1993. A national advert in the Daily Express from the Hartwell Group was spotted by Mr David Geere for Montego 2.0 LXi’s for £7999, the press cutting is included in the history file. Mr Geere is a big fan of the Montego and wanted to replace his 1986 2.0 HL that had covered 60,000 miles at the time. Knowing that Montego production was soon to end, he called the garage and spoke to the Car Sales Representative, Ted Noble, and posted a £100 cheque deposit along with a type written letter to secure a duo-tone Flame Red example with 24 miles from new. A copy of this letter is also included in the history file. This pre-registered example was transferred to Mr Geere on the 9th October 1993 and he has remained the only owner since! After collection he continued to use his ‘old’ Montego expecting it to go wrong, but it never did! As the years rolled by his ‘new’ Montego was rarely needed and became a relic used only for shows and national events and such is his dedication for the marque, he still owns the 1986 2.0 HL intended to be replaced which instead frequents the show circuit alongside this perfect example!
Included in the history file is all the original dealer correspondence including the new vehicle purchase invoice, previous MOT certificates and invoices, all handbooks, manuals and two keys with dealer fobs. In March 2024 the vehicle had a major service to include all fluids, filters and a cambelt.

- About us
- KGF Classic Cars was formed by the owner’s desire to pass on the enjoyment of amazingly original, modern classic cars and the pleasure these vehicles offer to their appreciative owners.
The eldest son of Italian-born parents – whose families came to the Cambridgeshire Fens after WWII to make bricks for new housing – Karl Fasulo grew up in the 70s and 80s when there were fewer cars on the roads.
His appreciation of beautiful motors began when his engineer father, Sav, purchased a red 1983 Mercedes 280SL as a weekend car back in 1985. That same Mercedes is still well-loved and driven regularly by Karl and is now in the showroom for all to see!
After a successful career spanning two decades selling and managing premium vehicles for dealerships in London and Cambridgeshire, Karl decided to set up KGF Classic Cars, to source original, modern classic cars and share them with like-minded knights of the road.
He says: “As a kid, I would squeeze in the back of our lovely red Mercedes with my brother and sister (seatbelts were not mandatory at that time!) – Mum and Dad in the front and all of us enjoying the outing. I would gaze out at other cars and my brother and I would shout out all the makes and models of the ones going by!
“With encouragement from my father, I entered the world of classic cars at 15, when I saved up and bought a 1964 Riley Elf Mk 2. This car was cleaned and polished every weekend until I was 17 when I threw away my L-plates and took to the road. My interest never subsided, even during my career at BMW – to the point where driving these older cars gave me more pleasure than the modern offerings. Perhaps it is just happy childhood memories, but there is something about those classics which draws me back to them every time . . .”
He added: “I consider it a privilege to meet and do business with people who love them as much as I do. So, whether you are buying or selling – or just browsing (taking a spin down memory lane, perhaps!) I hope you enjoy this website.”
All the vehicles offered by KGF Classic Cars are personally checked, meticulously inspected and driven by us to ensure they meet the incredibly high standards that are becoming very hard to find. The cars are eventually selected with the ultimate aim of providing the new owner with the best possible experience of that model, whatever it may be.
