    4 Stars Rover 75 Diesels 28/04/2009
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages MPG..Toys..Insurance group..

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Bootspace..if anything !

    I'm on my 2nd Rover 75 now, a saloon with all the bells and whistles...I had the estate version on recommendation of a truly knowledgeable friend in the motor trade and loved it..then the leather clad, sunroofed Connosieur turned up at a laughable price so I went for it... Both versions offer a seriously cheap way to get a good strong car, wich is both comfortable and economical...mileage claims from fans vary between 45 and 55 mpg on the diesel 2ltr engine and that's got to be good enough..They'll tow anything and run all day on motorways or round the town... The interiors are fitted with ... more

    5 Stars Diesel refinement 09/05/2003
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Diesel engine, interior quality, refinement

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Rear legroom, tyre wear

    I've had the Rover as a company car for 30,000 miles. Difficult to fault it, although it will appeal to a certain type of driver, those who appreciate style, refinement,quality and a smooth ride rather than pace, aggression and flash looks. The engine is outstanding (a slightly modified BMW), being quiet, super smooth, reliable and frugal (47mpg for me in a mixture of urban, motorway and A road conditions). It's quicker than you think too, especially when you have the revs up to 1,500, which probably means 30-40 mph, when there is plenty of overtaking oomph ! The handling is sound, the ride ... more

    3 Stars Comfortably faulty 13/11/2003
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Comfort, drive, looks, gadgets

    Disadvantages Disadvantages faulty, poor dealer service, availability and cost of spares, alround visibility

    I've owned my Rover for about 2 years. It's a good looking, comfortable car, which I enjoy driving. It's a pleasure cruising along the motorway but not much fun when parking or manoeuvering in tight spaces. It has a high waist restricting visibilty especially to the rear. It's packed with gadgets and accessories - in fact with its light leather upholstery it looks better inside than outside. The CD player is a joy to listen to and the climate control allows you to enjoy a one degree temperature difference from your passenger. However, ever since I've owned the thing it has been dogged by ... more

    4 Stars Quick review of Rover 75 2.0 Cdt by runrover75 01/08/2007
    This is probably the best car I have ever purchased,and I have to agree with all the other reviews on this site.It would get a full 5 star rating if I had not been plagued with parts reliability. I have owned the car since new July 2001, I have suffered the costs of coil springs all round, front fuel pump , mass air flow controller due to loss of power, ECU due to flood damage design fault ensure you remove the drain pipes below the bulkhead or it fills the bulkhead and kills your ECU cost £1000 to repair, and finally ... more

    5 Stars poetry on wheels 26/07/2000
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages excellent for MPG, fast, good looks

    Disadvantages Disadvantages quite expensive

    the car looks awesome on the outside and beautiful on the inside. Behind the wheel the car seems stiff, extremely well put together which is reassuring when giving it some when cornering. The seats were very comftorble and although only the club model the trim was very nice especially the wood dash and the white speado. For a diesil it was very quite but gave a good growl when I decided to give it some in the outside lane on the motorway. There is plenty of space inside and it handles well, my mom was asleep on the back seat on the test drive as we were took it to the limits in the welsh ... more

    5 Stars Disadvantages of Diesal 21/11/2000
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Nice looks, very good economy

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Hard to locate

    I have test driven all the models of the Rover 75 with a view to purchasing one....but I cannot find the one I want. The biggest disadvantage is the Diesal spec is is such a short supply. Has anyone else found this or do they know where to get one. He is something that perhaps you did not know virtually all the second hand diesals were previously run by Rover executives and are ususally high milage, but they have been serviced professionally, BEFORE time and represent a very good buy due to the higher milage? Hope that snip helps. Steve` ... more

    4 Stars Move Over it's a Rover! 09/07/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Luxury at low price, Originally created by BMW, Looks like a Jaguar.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Company gone into liquidation, Petrol engines had tendancy to blow head gasket.

    Yes I know that unfortunatly after years of unfaultable service MG/Rover has sadly gone into liquidation. Even more sader is that I never got to own a Rover and when I finally started looking at them the worst happend, however, I still will purchase a second-hand Rover when the time comes. Why?!, I here you cry... Well just take a look at the Rover 75, it just oozes style and luxury that could only be incorporated by BMW. You can see this reflected in the buttons for the Sat Nav/Radio/CD player and the gear knob on both automatic and manual transmissions before even looking at the quality of ... more

    Rover 75 CDTI. 36000, The clutch went ! All new clutch parts required, Duel mass Flywheel, Slave Cylinder, Clutch Plate, Cover and Master Cylinder. Parts cot £ 734.76 Plus Labour and VAT !!!! All the parts were kept in stock by the main dealer. Is there a problem with BMW clutches ??? We had no problems before with the clutch, until the clutch decided to start slipping and completely went within 1 mile.
