Summary
What does this car say about you?
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Stylish
Would you buy this car again and why?
No, Rover let themselves and their loyal customers (like me) down by installing expensive but flimsy BMW parts. The comfort and style is perfect but the silly hydraulic clutch and flywheel were a let down and all the other bits that have gone wrong have been VERY costly to rectify. I love rovers, but not this one sadly.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
CLUTCH!!!!! Including flywheel, master cylinder, slave cylinder and all the hydraulics associated with the clutch. Over £1500 to put right. also brakes master cylinder. also climate control doesn't get cold because the air con unit has gone but its costly to replace so we've not done.
What's most practical about your car?
Very good on diesel if driven correctly. Comfort is second to none.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Love the comfort.
