The only things that would have saved Rover were replacements for the 25 and 45.
V8’s and convertibles are niche products that add value to a brand and desirability. BMW had that in spades and a complete and coherent range of cars. You make a spectacular performance car and it adds kudos to the small city car that you sell to the masses. The rare Rovers and MG’s are something to be preserved and seen as good history lessons.

The RDX60 was a later prototype developed by MG Rover to replace the 45/ZS. It was based on the 75 and went through numerous iterations, the final evolution of which materialised as the MG6.
