What was the Most Luxurious ever R75?

Edward Huggins · 18th June 2016, 12:25

I sometimes wonder what the most luxurious Rover 75 ever specified would have been like or if there is any record of one?
A Cowley 2.5 V6 Connie, Custom-Line Interior, full SatNav, Rear Blind, Harmon-Kardon Audio.....what else would it have had I wonder?
And if there was one, where is it now?
Sorry Folks, I'm just day-dreaming!

There's bound to have been quite a few for MGR directors, government ministers and royalty

Probably one of the V8's will tick all the boxes. I did see one last year that seemed to have everything.

Wouldn't it of been a vanden plas model?

Surely a long wheelbase variant with whatever bells & whistles.

It would have to be a really early one.
If they did a v8 with cowley embellishments and thick carpets real wood dash etc and all the toys then I think that would be.

My Auto is a good spec
ZT CDTI 160
Curtain airbags
Rear blind
Auto dip mirror
Rain sensor wipers
Xenon headlights
Powerwash
Full window tints
11 spoke 18 inch wheels
Fuel burning heater
Rear spoiler
Ultra sonic alarm
Climate control
Black monogram full electric memory seats
Cruise control
Climate control
Parking sensors
The list goes on and on
I wouldn't let it go for anything and it's a Mk2 with PPD bits added like carpet heater vents etc
