In agreement with the above, it looks lovely. Considering it's built on a 15yr old design. Makes you wonder why it all went belly up in the end.

The exterior looks lovely, just a shame we will never see it. The only thing I would want to change would be that horrendous steering wheel.

I've studied the pics & to be honest I've decided I quite like it, some bits I'm not so keen on but in general it gets the 2Diesels seal of approval & what better guarantee could you have?
I certainly think it's a better & much more imaginative facelift than Rover's feeble attempt

Still being the odd one out here I think it looks rubbish the new bumper design looks okay but the headlights look horrible too bright to blingy and too big! I don't mind the back the new LED rear lights look good but not mated to the 75s retro body it looks like those Egyptian and Arabic peugeots you can buy like the Peugeot 206+ it's an old 206 body with rip off 207 parts attached and this is the same the 206 is a timeless body shape they still looks fresh and the rover 75 body shape is a classic but ruined now by Romford market BMW fake add ons and whole the interior is a nice design it does look like ray Charles was project manager when selecting materials to put it together with! I'll stick to my ancient pre facelift ZT thanks :-) lol
