We’ve driven to Horsley in Surrey from Durham and had an overnight stay in Oxford with the Cowley factory visible from our Premier inn . I haven’t seen so much as one Rover 75 . I spotted a well used Rover 25 on Cowley Road driven by a cool looking Rastafarian guy whilst waiting to cross the road , and we parked next to a tidy MG ZR at Wisley gardens but other than that we appear to have the only Rover 75 in the country. I have seen more Jaguar E types this week ( 2 )
