Default Would you have bought a R75 if the Facelift had come first?

Discuss . . .


I'm sure I wouldn't have. I sometimes pass a facelift version and - too late - think "Mm was that a Rover 75?" I was expecting the recent excellent DVD to answer this question. "So Richard. Why did you think your baby needed a revamp to the front? And do you now regret it?"


To me the original front appearance is so appealing: the bonnet slightly protruding over the hooded lights, like my Basset Hound when she knows she's pinched my supper and is begging forgiveness.


The only change I've made is to substitute stainless mesh which I immodestly think has improved the classic design - but each to their own.
