The Rover 75 is by far one of the best large saloons on the road. It comes with so much refinement and luxury it leaves the cometition standing. The ride quality is 1st class and it is a pleasure to drive. The Rover 75 is a good looking car and will stand the test of time. This is a great british icon which has been so underated there is little I can say in criticism of this vehicle other than why was it left to history. Buy one and you won't be disappointed, in fact you would find it hard to part with.

Just sold the Rover 75 after it blew 2 head gaskets. Always check the coolent levels (I had mine converted to LPG which may have made the problem worse). The car itself is a little underpowered but the ride comfort is great and looks superb. After a little research I found that the CDT (diesel) has no gasket issues and is far more reliable. I have since bought one because I liked the shape and comfort and have driven over 60 000 miles with no issues (currently on 140 000 miles). If you like the 75 buy a diesel the MPG is also much better.

This car might have saved Rover if they had got it sorted before they marketed it. It's quiet, comfortable and economical for a car of its size. In its day it competed easily with all the other major car makers models and was superior to many respects.

Superb car. Looks like a 20 grand car and has all the elegance and luxury of this bracket. It is beautiful. Always check for gasket problems. Ie, gunk under the engine top. Odd coloured oil in the car. Like a murky cream instead of the oil colour. Water boiling at normal temp. All this means is the head gasket has had it. Either I have had really bad luck with them or it's a common problem on these. Pity really because other than this the car is superb.

Rover 75 1.8 Club is a superb mid range car although somewhat underpowered when pulling away from a standing start, comfort levels are first class, expensive looking interior, beautiful drive. Superb comfort, excellent display and layout of instruments.

Just love the Rover 75 1.8 Club, chunk solid real quality. Much more fun to drive than the 600 series but 1.8 K16 engine is brash and not suited to car.
Handles very nicely in a solid sober sort of a way but can suprise the boy racer if you want it to. Brake pad life better than 60,000 miles. Brakes are very good and progressive. Unlike previous larger Rovers tyre wear is more of an issue running tyres at 35 psi helps without spoiling the excellent ride too much.
Poor rear vision makes it essesential to fit parking reversing sensors if your model dosen't have them..
