2000 Rover - Austin 75 Club review from UK and Ireland
"An excellent car, if not flawed by reliability problems"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A large number of things have gone wrong with the car:
All 4 door latches have been replaced.
New clutch.
Two throttle body injectors.
Rear tweeters.
Miscellaneous door trim.
Engine misfire.
General comments?
The Rover 75 is a magnificient car, let down by poor Customer Service by MG Rover and poor reliability. I bought by car on 1st September 2000 and only now has the car been returned to Rover for investigation.
Since writing to the Deputy Chairman, things have speeded up and have been excellent.
The comfort and drive of the car is excellent and it is the most complete car I have ever owned. I previously owned a Ford Mondeo ST24 and this is streets ahead of that, even with the reliability problems.
