Used Rover 75 Touring £5,000 for a good one
A lot of car for the money. Good ride and economical thanks to BMW 2.0-litre diesel. Beware of dubious power chipping and demand a service history.

The Rover 75 and the Jaguar S Type seemed satisfyingly retro (the Rover more so than the Jag) and, while the E46 3-Series was a pre-Bangled evolution of the E36, the one car that stood out as clean, fresh and new was the exquisite IS200.

Have you had any problems with the car?
Yes but covered by the warranty.It has to be said it was all Ford stuff.Had a Rover 75 cdt from new and it was more reliable than the Jag.The jag is still a much more pleasing car.

the price tag puts it in competition with the mass of C-segment hatchbacks. It has the looks of contemporary design too: the slim headlights and good stance all help, although the pronounced curves and high waistline are a reminder of the Rover 75 ...
