185/70 will be 7%/45mm smaller diameter, so have a large effect on gearing. 

Not sure what the 2000 chaps use (though many fit 15" rims I think) but somebody will be along to advise...

When I had my PI and faced this same issue, I found that it is still possible to get the correct tyres, in decent quality and not ridiculously priced, with a bit of effort. I ordered online from an American company, who had stock of 185/80/13 white-walls, but the white is only on one side and they're not directional tyres, so just get them fitted with the white on the inside and nobody need know.

Most 2000 owners looking for a different wheel change to 15" as very large tyre choice.

I have seen many cars with 13" van tyres fitted, including on just 1 corner. But they ar e the right size apparently. Also very scary!.

Options are "S" alloys, or Stag 14" steels if you want to use PI wheel trims (get a set with oval valve holes)

Or even 14" Minilites.

Still a very good choice of 14" tyres.
