Summary
What does this car say about you?
That I'm the wrong side of 50.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
No bad comments - then if you are giving them a lift they are hardly going to complain.
Would you buy this car again and why?
Would if Rover were still in business. Haven't spent a penny over usual servicing and tyres until the clutch eventually went at 130,000 miles by which time I had 5 year of use.
What are you likely to buy next?
When this one gives up the ghost guess it will be time to down size to something like a Jazz or a Note.
