I have only had the car for a couple of months but I have nothing but praise so far. 86K on the clock with service history. It has a few scrapes and imperfections that I was not going to bother with, but now I am intending to get them sorted as I love this car now. I use it as a weekly commute covering 200 miles, and so far it has been an absolute pleasure to drive. Plenty of comfort, and enough power to sit at 75/80 comfortably in luxury with little cabin noise. For what you can pick these up for it is an absolute steal. These are a well kept secret, the BMW Diesel lump will keep going and going. The owners club is worth joining as there is a wealth of knowledge out there and the forum has been invaluable to me so far. Do your research and go get yourself an amazing car for an amazing price.

Owned this car 13 years and driven 200,000 miles. Bought 3 years old at 23,000 miles. Never let me down. Some pricey repairs recently which I was unable to do myself (rear suspension arms) along with some electrical faults now evident. (Rad fan seized and drivers door lock failed)Would continue to repair but my age and fitness no longer allow. Still looks and drives like new. Sadly looking to scrap in July as residual value virtually nil now. Just a shame Rover failed would buy another before anything else.

Bought this car 2 years ago, FSH and 62k. It has never let me down, nice comfortable drive and nice power when sports mode engaged. I have since fitted a K & N air filter and a MG ZT exhaust system among other things. As i have only done 72k (10k in two years) and maintained the car as one should, this car is now valued at more than i paid for it. Love this car.

I bought my 75 1.8T in June 2015 with 24000 on the clock. it was my first post 1975 car I bought and what a brilliant car it turned out to be. I found it was easy to work on and modify to my taste and a strong club backing to support with sourcing parts and tips for conversions. people need to remember that these are becoming old cars now so if you buy one make sure you have some spare dosh to spend on repairs! there are still many (ex) Mg Rover service centres who have the correct knowledge and tools and parts to keep your pride and joy on the road. these cars can be full of problems so again make sure you are happy to spend money on them many of the problems have now been sorted via the clubs and they are not prone to problems any more than any other car. marvellous cars

Got notification that this car had just came onto market. No picture was available but the information provided showed the vehicle to be just what I was after. Contacted the garage , Signature Car Sales Airdrie and made enquirey about the car and was told it has gone straight into the garage for the mechanics to do their stuff. Pictures would be on and nothing would be done without contacting me as I had made first enquirey . Went online next morning still no photoes and advert stated car was gone. Contacted garage again and was told still in workshops will call me when they find out what's happening. Still no call to this day , sounds to me as though something has been done slightly underhand . Very disappointed as most of these vehicles are down south. Still on the hunt but won't be getting involved with Signature Car Sales.

Had this car for over 10 years. Pulled caravan all over UK and parts of Europe. Never once broke down. every thing still works even after 13 years plus of daily motoring. Good economy and can shift when needed. Comfortable on long journeys. Little cramped in rear passenger seats. Difficulty for me now is when the time comes to replace the old dear, what do I go for ? I have been spoilt owning this car.

The Rover 75 was the best car to bear the name in terms of its practicality and in terms of modern Rovers its quality and finish. The diesel is very economical, it is comfortable and has the advantage of not having a DPF. I keep my 75 as I cannot think of any new or recent car which would suit my needs as well, or which would offer the same level of refinement and style to my taste. The car has a good level of trim and of equipment and does not have the same degree of electronic complication to be found on modern car, no touch screen thank goodness! Servicing costs are reasonable and the car makes a good all round choice, we took ours to Cornwall this year and make regular motorway trips in it from Sussex to Bucks. And, best of all it is British designed and made, even if the engine is Austrian.

I have had it for eleven years and have always liked it. It is a shame they are not made anymore.

Have been told by strangers that this is the best saloon car and should never have had the production stopped.

I agree. But there we are, BMW wanted to destroy Rover - stamp out all competition! I will keep it going for as long as I am able.

She is 'getting on' a bit now but I will be loathe to part with her, when the time comes. Bought as a used car, with exceptionally low mileage, she is the most comfortable car I've had, and very reliable and the bodywork is still in prime condition after all these years. The road tax is expensive, but worth it.

Never had any problems with my car, I have it serviced every year and any minor faults (if any)are put right. The only problem I find is a blind spot at the front right hand windscreen door post

Not a great deal to say except that I do wish that they were still made. I have used this car for quite a few journeys to the French alps for ski trips and the fuel economy has been brilliant and comfort very good with the boot being cavernous.

Had car for 11 years, only had battery collapse once and also leaking thermostat housing, otherwise starts every time all weather, very comfortable for long journeys, very thirsty about town, performance excellent unless you expect super acceleration, tremendous low end torque, happy at 35 on flat in fifth gear, I have managed to get a full size single bed in rear with rear door closed ! Wish they still made them, would but again second hand when this one gives up. 120,000 miles and not a sound from the engine on start up. Just change oil and filter every year and cam belts changed at 90,000. Plus usual consumables and brake linings.
