...this?

Its the Rover 75, it is sadly defunct, but i owned a Tourer in 2002 new, and i liked this car alot. I beat a V8 version yesterday, i posted in the kill stories, the V8 gets a 4.6 260hp engine, with RWD, and the lower models got a few four pot engines and a 2.5 V6 twinned with FWD.

Just wondering what you guys thought of it. Its about the size of a BMW 3 Series, maybe a little bigger.

Your links were to many and overwhelming to read them all.

I thought I read that Rover was going belly up? Is this the same company as the Land Rover?

Looks ok, needs chrome rims,tinted windows, and a chrome grill. Maybe me in the driver's seat would do it.
