Used Rover 75

It stands out with its retro charm and limousine-like ride, offering a good-value alternative to familiar German and Swedish executive cars. The Rover 75 was unveiled in 1998 and went on sale in 1999, with production lasting until 2005 and available as both saloon and estate (Tourer) versions. Developed under BMW’s ownership, it focused on comfort, craftsmanship and refined style, setting itself apart from rivals like the Volkswagen Passat and Volvo S40 with a traditional, plush cabin and smooth suspension. Key features include good ride quality, a strong presence on the road, and a choice of petrol and BMW-sourced diesel engines.

Pros

Supremely comfortable ride
Classic, elegant interior
Good value on the used market

Cons

Less rear seat space than rivals
Rear visibility is limited
German alternatives offer more advanced technology

What are the key safety features of the Rover 75?

The Rover 75 offers dual front and side airbags, ABS brakes and seatbelt pre-tensioners as standard on most trims. Most trims also included side-impact door beams and ISOFIX child-seat mounts in later years. Early Euro NCAP crash ratings for the 75 highlight reasonable levels of occupant protection for its era, though it lacks some of the newer systems found in younger cars.
What engine options are available with the Rover 75?

You can find the Rover 75 with a wide range of engines. Petrol options range from a 1.8-litre four-cylinder (with and without turbo) to 2.0 and 2.5-litre V6s. Diesel drivers get a BMW-sourced 2.0 CDT engine, which is highly respected for its blend of economy and torque. A rare V8 model joined the line-up late in the run.
What are the standard technology and infotainment features in the Rover 75?

Standard technology depends on trim, but you can find air conditioning, electric windows and, on upmarket models, leather seats and even cruise control. CD players weren’t standard across the board – early base trims often had cassette players with optional CD autochangers. The interior prioritises comfort and character, with wood-effect finishes and retro-inspired dials.
What is the fuel consumption of the Rover 75?

Official figures range from around 24mpg for the 2.5-litre V6 petrol to nearly 48mpg for the BMW-sourced 2.0 diesel. In everyday use, most owners see mid-30smpg overall, with the diesel delivering particularly strong economy on long motorway runs.
What should I check when buying a used Rover 75?

Check for a complete service history and pay close attention to the coolant system on 1.8-litre engines – head gasket failures can be an issue if levels have dropped. Inspect for even tyre wear, working electrics and any warning lights. For extra peace of mind, consider The AA Vehicle Inspection, a thorough, independent examination.
Are Rover 75 cars reliable?

The Rover 75 is widely recognised as one of the most robust Rovers ever built. Most major faults were resolved early in production, and the diesel engines in particular are tough. However, regular maintenance is key and some issues – especially head gaskets on the 1.8 – require close monitoring.
