In fairness, all manufacturers strip out content during the life of a model, notjust Rover. We are simply more aware of the cost cutting on these cars because we're enthusiasts and because MGR went too far with it.

I thought that the opposite was true, manufacturers tend to add to the specification throughout the models life to maintain its desirability.

They do come facelift time when they can market the improvements. The sceptic in me often wonders when manufacturers claim '30% thicker glass', 'upgraded door seals' etc. whether they are simply reinstating what was originally fitted to the cars at launch and had been subsequently stripped.
