Common Problems: ROVER 25
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- K-Series Head Gasket Failure (HGF)(Serious)
The 1.1, 1.4, 1.6, and 1.8 engines are all prone to gasket failure due to plastic dowels and a small coolant capacity.
- Rusting Rear Arches(Moderate)
Water gets trapped behind the lip of the rear wheel arches, causing rust to rot through from the inside.
MOT Status
No MOT history available
No MOT test records were found for this registration. DVSA’s digital archive only covers tests from 2005, so a vehicle that has not been tested since then may legitimately have no visible history.
