Nope, the 216 auto used Honda D engine, Hondamatic gearbox, Honda EFI,
Honda engine management, Japanese alternator, and starter motor, etc.
Much like a Civic

the 214 that looked the same had a Rover K series engine, Peugeot manual
gearbox, someone else's EFI, Motorola engine management, and Lucas
alternator and starter motor.

the 214 was a dogs dinner of 2nd rate parts that the 216 auto wasn't.

I had a 216 auto and as you say it was a Concerto in a frock,
lovely reliable car

If you gave me a 214 i would push it to a breakers
