Rover 25 1999-

Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

  • Economy

    Value

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Depreciating a little fast now.

    Costs

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Free servicing helped a lot. Heavy wear on tyres a little costly.

  • On the road

    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Good driving position, easy gears and seats do job well. 400 miles non-stop and no backache is praiseworthy.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    As nippy as I need and cruises nicely on motorways. Adequate power for me but dies a little on hills if revs drop.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Nothing yet, apart from wear and tear.

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Seat supports me very well and size is perfect for my needs.

    Security

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Immobiliser fitted as and it works well as I have found when leaving key in with door open for a while.

    Service

    4 out of 5 4.0
