Are these the same parts, as used on BMWs?
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bmw-333034...-/400791015497 Looks very similar |

All ready asked this question on another thread I started, as the Rover 75 shares its rear design with the BMW Z1... which shared it with other BMW's in the range... waiting on a few email replies from Parts departments... to see if someone can find out..as stuck in for the next few days... I think the parts look identical... just need confirmation. |

Sounds good! never spotted your thread. If it is different, I wonder if the pattern part companies would consider making a variant to fit these cars |

As you can see, close but no cigar. We can use the bush at the end though, although a couple of washers will be needed to space it out, as it's a little short. No idea what I'm going to do with the BMW arm I now have here though...

E46 3 series, the closest I could find.
Here's a list of that part's applications: http://www.yoyopart.com/oem/2195597/...ml#application I think they shared the same suspension set-up, but with different actual components - the same way our cars share the same front suspension design with the E46 3 Series, but with different actual parts that aren't cross-compatible.

As far as I know, First Line have them made for themselves - there's no markings etc on the parts.
