DON'T CLICK AWAY. Theres SOME logic here. Since Rover are no longer in existence, and since the chrome and twin headlights are a throwback to the P6, maybe, just maybe, it could be slightly retro? I think the walnut and 6 cylinder sound are retro. Well, mine's an estate. It has a long list of technical issues, but it works sometimes, thus it is my daily. It's also on coilovers, which isn't to everybody's liking. But what do you lot think? (click here for full res) |

That looks far better than i expected it would. Just shows how a drop and a set of wheels can transform any car

I love rovers but agree they are a bit soft on the head gaskets.

Mechanic's rule #1... If the car works, anything left on the floor after you finished wasn't needed in the first place  |

Astounding.
This is absolutely a Retro-Rides worthy car*. You are a hero.
*Not all Rovers and MGs are RR worthy...if you don't know why this one is, yours probably isn't.

The car looks seriously clean as is but without the sticker in the windscreen it would look SUPER clean. Ive had a 75 and a ZT190 new, so I'm going back a bit, but I thought they were wonderful cars that were hugely underrated. |
