    Driving

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Plenty of understeer in the wet, backend very stable though, no surpises.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Nothing blistering, simply goes when you need it too. Will cruise at a 100 no worries, acceleration reasonable.

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Its got an alarm, an immob, and a flashing light... worked so far. Having said that, would you nick one?

    Service

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Just don't bother. Rover deserve to go bust. Rude, pricey, slow and shoddy.
