Rover 75 Saloon (1999 - 2004) 2.0 CDT Connoisseur 4d Owner Review

I'd like to say, this is without a doubt one of the best Rovers I've ever been in. I'm 25, this is my second car, first being a Vauxhall and I love it. My mates told me I needed a flat cap, pipe and some slippers which I now have acquired, but since they've been in it and heard the quality of the stock speakers and felt the comfort, they like it too. I paid £350 for this car with some issues. The problems are quite common, but being the Diesel, it still drives and is reasonable on fuel. I'm guessing when Rover built this car, they decided to attempt to compete with JAAAAAG. They got some things right, but in all honesty, a lot of things wrong. The right things are: You can fit a body in the boot, stolen towels from your hotel you stayed in and your golf bag, you can fit all your friends in the car comfortably and if they get on your nerves, drive steady, they'll fall asleep with the comfort of the ride. The wrong things: This car has more rattles than a lorry driving over devon roads with loads of empty cans loosely packed in a trailer. I mean it. You have to drive with the locks locked, and even then, the dash rattles. Not very competitive to the JAAAAG, but as a cheaper alternative, you can't complain, and that boot space will store all those "borrowed" items you've taken because really, your a Jag owner in training with this whip. Overall: You'll be certain to impress your girl friends dad when rocking up to the house in this whip, ideal if your like me and have a boring personality and can't make small talk. I'd certainly recommend this car especially before they become the modern classics that they so clearly are, after all, its a Rover that DOESN'T have a K Series engine. British engineering on the body and interior, german engine and running gear. Its like the best combination. The car will still drive in 100 years when the shell and interior has rotted around it.
