Is that why the pages are always torn by the time I get to browse through it....people wrestling with it to get it back on the shelf?!!

 

Although i dont agree with it, its good news someone likes a Rover product for a change.

 

Excellent article, it add's credence to the entire range and all the cars are mentioned in there.

Anyone reading it will know that Rover have some of the best engines in all their models.

Not a bad piece of subtle advertising!

 

References to the "BMW-designed" 75 irritated me.

But otherwise, fab.

Me too, but to be fair this is probably true, certainly from a mechanical point of view.

I know we hate them, but it won't harm the 75 to remind people of it's association with them.

 

Seen same thing posted already on another forum the below

Autodistress pos+ MGR press
In this weeks autodistress there is a feature on the K series engine and although it is 15yrs old they never slated quite the opposite they said it was flexible thus the fact it used in a wide range of vehicles and manufacturers, from the Ariel Atom - new Streetwise.

As well as this they had a pic nearer front of mag of the SV interior snapped by someone from another forum that they have put in their mag.

Oh and another thing about a Census which MGR purchased snapped outside longbridge, MGR denied they were thinking of buying Census the firm but stressed that they did purchase the car. Also states that census has a few MGR former employees and that the car was developed using some of the F bits.

The thing that grates me about autodistress is that they always print conflicting info like the other weak they printed their 1st drive of the Daewoo Kalos Sports (or something) and had the ZR as a alternative + points were aggresive styling - point aged engine make up your mind.

 

rover had a few meanchance in the top 100 motoring events section

 

Yup..... great to see AutoDistress confirming what most of us already knew I was tempted to buy it at Birmingham Airport today.... but managed to resist the temptation.

It also has a 'Bentley, son of 75' photo comparison.

Having seen the Bentley in the flesh it does look like a modded 75...spooky!

Even more spooky when you consider that the first of the new generation Skodas (the Octavia? cant remember...) looks like a MkII 800 has pupped...

Off topic, but it seems to me the only really innovative stylists in VAG all live at SEAT.

This is true, but then all the quality control people have left seat and gone to Skoda..............draw your own conclusions.

 

Yeah there is a cool looking Leon based MPV in there looks really sporty looking
