    Value

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Bought mine while quite expensive, but they are a steal now.

    Costs

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Some costly repairs but the MPG more than makes up for it.

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Great on the motorway.

    Performance

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Eat my smoke! You don't want to have to pull away too quickly but the pick up at 55-60 is great.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Inverse kudos - the ultimate car.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    More than adequate. Kids like to ride in the third row of seats.

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Service

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Never used Rover.
