Not hard to see why they went under when you see what the phoenix four paid themselves and in one case a consultant who was just coincidentally one of them's bit on the side. Workers sold down the river and British motoring production is history through sheer greed. YES you Mr Towers!!

Having sat in some 750's whilst I was in Saudi I have to say that they still "feel" like 75's.. just with a very modern twist..
They don't look or feel as well built as our 75's.. and wouldn't have one instead of my 75. But I reckon most of us would test drive and/or maybe have one?? - If we hadn't got our cars.. if that makes sense?? Just my opinion ... |

I can see the modern styling appeal to youngsters, but it looks too much like an Audi, and as such would always be called an Audi wanna be especially by the pro German British motoring press.
When my car appears in someones mirror they know its a Rover maybe not the specific model 75, but this would just look like all the Audi company cars you see so close in your mirrors now days. Not enough of the traditional Good looking individualism we have loved over the last 60/70 or 100 years.
