Yes bubble shaped rover 200/25 --
Tank is different shape on the other Rovers ie earlier 214 and 400/45 but the cap is the same -- if buy second hand good idea to check the vent
hole in the cap isn't blocked up
Late production MGTF tank is the same but has a coolant level warning light sensor.
75 and Honda engined Rovers are completely different.

I've not looked yet Martin and will still do so, but a new one from a car parts place will cost you about £4 or £5! You need to get a high
pressure one, and you can get one to fit a Rover or a Ford.
