MG Rover Models
The MG Rover Group (2000–2005) produced some of the most characterful British cars of the modern era. While the brands are now separate (MG is owned by SAIC, Rover is defunct), the cars from this period share identical mechanical platforms and are often grouped together by enthusiasts and for maintenance.
Rover 25 / MG ZR
The supermini platform. The ZR was a top-selling hot hatch in the UK, while the 25 was a comfort-oriented daily driver.
Rover 45 / MG ZS
Mid-size cars based on a Honda-derived platform. The MG ZS is widely praised for its exceptional handling.
Rover 75 / MG ZT
Shared executive platform. The Rover 75 focused on luxury and comfort, while the MG ZT offered a firmer, more sporting drive.
MG TF / MGF
Mid-engined roadsters. The MGF uses Hydragas suspension, while the TF uses traditional coil springs.
