I have found one on ebay which looks identical:
Brake Fluid Reservoir Tray For ROVER 200 Coupe 216 (1992-1999) GRK6019
ROVER GRK6019 - Girling 74470826 - cap code 74470906
My Reservoir part number is out by one digit: 74470825
The cap code is identical.
What does the difference in the part number denote ?
Is this part correct for my car ?

I have figured out what the difference is:
The Master Cylinder and Resevoir are different for LHD and RHD cars.
They are Mirror Images of each other.
This explains why the item is being listed by an Italien vendor.
He has the part number number listings for LHD cars.
I recon that the LHD Resevoir will just about fit onto the RHD Master Cylinder,
but the Brake Servo Vacuum Hose will be chafing on it.
