Buying Tips for the Rover 75

  • Prioritize the 2.0 CDTi (BMW diesel engine) for long-distance reliability.
  • Check for a "Fuel Orange Clip" (FOC) in the service history for later petrol models to prevent in-tank fuel pump separation.
  • Feel the carpets for dampness, which can indicate leaking rear light seals or sunroof drains.
