2000 Rover - Austin 75 Connoisseur SE review from UK and Ireland
"A Rolls Royce at Mondeo money!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
No faults to date!
General comments?
Well the interior is just fantastic, you feel so at home when you are sitting in the car.
And it's very well built - not one squeak or rattle after 94k!
It's all made of hard wearing materials. To look at it you would not think that the car had done so many miles!
The dashboard is very well thought out. All the dials are easy to read night or day, all the switch gear is at your finger tips, and simple to use with a nice feel.
There are enough toys and gadgets on this car to keep you amused for hours, like the most amazing on board computer that tells you every thing from when your window washer is low to exactly what light bulb has blown!
But the best toy of them all is the electric rear blind! (Lovely when people behind are looking at you)
Just shutting the doors you get a satisfying clunk! And you know that you are driving a quality car!
The drive of the car is super, quiet and smooth, and I'm yet to drive another car that has a better ride!
After nearly 5 years I don't feel let down by this car!
About to get my next brand new Rover 75 in the next month!
And I'm sure that the new Rover will please me as much as much as the current car has done!
The Rover 75 does show that Rover is back and is still making brilliant cars!
