The best 75 for the OP is the diesel aoutomatic. Go for a lowish (under 100k) mileage car, pref one prev owner with good service history. :lol:

Get the top of the range Conny SE. preferably a MK1. (pre-facelift) You should get a very nice one for less than £3,000. You can spend the rest on diesel fuel touring Britain in your spare time..

I am not a "Rover" fan per se, but I am a devout diesel auto fan, and in my opinion the Rover 75 is far and away the best one around in it's price range. It is also extremely well equiped by way of extras, and an absolute joy to drive..

The 2.5 V6 would be my 2nd choice, but as I like driving the MPG is a consideration for me. Hence diesels rule...
