    Not that there have been many, but Rover dealers can be a little expensive.

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    At times rides like a mini limo, comfy on long a journey but handles like a boat.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Very nippy for a diesel... friends will be suprised!

    Maybe not for the twenty somethings

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Excellent but not as much room as a Mondeo.

    Alarm and immobiliser.

    Service

    5 out of 5 5.0

    You cannot fault Rover dealers. They treat you very well and turn around the car when promised...maybe a bit dear if anything.
