Vastly underrated, because of the name of its manufacturer, but it ticked all the boxes, luxurious, economical (for its size/ambience) reliable, lovely retro styling, yet still looks undated, etc etc.

My 75 is now owned by my son in law, sailed through MoT late last year, 268000 miles

Only found out recently that Rover put a 2-litre V6 in those (as well as the 45) as well. Always fancied the MG ZT 260 version ...4.6 litre V8 Ford Mustang lump under the bonnet with RWD
