Default Rover 45 'Tourer'

In case it helps neither Honda nor Rover ever produced a 45 Tourer, either in prototype or production guise. The issue was the subject of much web based debate a few years ago; AR online has the definitive story.

According to Richard Woolley, a Tourer version of the 400 was "talked about", although he has no knowledge of any being built. Therefore, it never came to pass, and a small but important market niche was surrendered when the R8 version went out of production.

However, that has not stopped other people from creating their own
