Rover 25 review covering 1999 - 2005
Tuesday 1 July 2008
The Rover 25 is a slightly modernised version of the successful 200 range. With its corporate grille and tightened up suspension, the 25 aims to appeal to a younger and more dynamic group of buyers than the 200 ever did. More realistic pricing from new helped the 25’s cause, and has also made it an interesting used buy. For buyers who don’t want the last word in technology or a cavernous interior the Rover 25 is worth a look. It certainly carries a bit more gravitas than a Ford Fiesta or a Fiat Punto.

Although not without its merits, it’s doubtful that Rover’s tie up with TATA cars of India will be remembered as a high point in the firm’s corporate history. The car that was spawned, dubbed the City

Amazing as it seems, the Rover Cabriolet really did live on to 1999. Based on the Series II Rover 200, which in turn was based on the Honda Ballade, the Cabriolet always needed a refracting telescope

Rover's biggest saloon, the 800 had a difficult but nonetheless successful life. Launched to a lukewarm reception from the press in 1986, the initially underdeveloped 800 eventually found favour as pe

There are some cars that have a definite element of rightness about them of which the Rover 75 Tourer is one. Despite being launched a full two years after the 75 saloon, the 75’s inherent genteel clu

Rover has produced so many ‘last chance saloons’ that by now they’ve become rather good at it. The 75 range is the product of Rover’s disastrous spell under the governance of BMW, and if you were expe

This is the car Rover believed would challenge the BMW 3-series, back in the days when it was owned by British Aerospace. Following the 1994 BMW take-over, the Germans let Rover continue development o

The Rover 45 took over where the old 400 series left off. With a new-look corporate grille, revised driving characteristics and aimed squarely at the middleweight VW Golf/Ford Focus axis, the Rover 45

The 200 and 400 series models were the cars that established Rover in the modern era. Though the design was closely based on Honda's Concerto, it developed its own identity and now makes plenty of sen
