My question is, what on earth could replace it? Any suggestions from all you helpful people?
I can honestly say that there is really no car that can follow the R75, Rover made a very fine car all those years ago, they new it then but others were adamant to destroy the company, both within and without. From that era there is nothing that remotely has the character, flawed yes but wonderful all the same, so my advise is find another 75, or better still fix the little problems and carry on for a little longer one day these wonderful cars will all be gone and then boy are they going to be missed, trust me, it will be so.
